Darius Rucker Celebrates 8th #1 Hit, “If I Told You”, And Previews New Music

Music industry and friends gathered at the newly-unveiled entertainment venue Topgolf this week to celebrate Darius Rucker’s 8th number one hit song, “If I Told You”.

The three-time GRAMMY winner celebrated the current hit off his forthcoming album alongside the songwriters: Ross Copperman (BMI), Shane McAnally (GMR) and Jon Nite (ASCAP).

Following the presentation of the awards, guests were treated to a full band preview of his 5th studio album entitled, ‘When Was The Last Time’, set to release on October 20th.  Rucker became the first artist, along with his band the Carolina Grey Boys, to play a full set at the new venue and entertained the crowd with several new songs.  He closed out the set with his rendition of an old favorite, “Wagon Wheel”.

Fans who pre-order Darius Rucker’s new album will also receive the instant grat track, “Don’t”.

We can’t wait to hear more from the chart-topping country singer!

Afterwards, all guests were invited to stick around and try their hand at knocking a few golfballs out at the lit targets on the large driving range as a special preview of Topgolf before opening to the public on September 22nd.

About Darius Rucker
Rucker first attained multi-Platinum status in the music industry as the lead singer and rhythm guitarist of GRAMMY award-winning Hootie & the Blowfish. Since re-introducing himself to the world as a country artist, he has released four consecutive albums to top the Billboard Country albums chart and earned a whole new legion of fans. In 2014, Rucker won his third career GRAMMY award for Best Solo Country Performance for his 4x Platinum selling cover of Old Crow Medicine Show’s “Wagon Wheel,” off his album, True Believers. Rucker’s first two country albums, Learn To Live and Charleston, SC 1966 produced five No. 1 singles including “Come Back Song,” “This,” “Alright,” “It Won’t Be Like This For Long” and “Don’t Think I Don’t Think About It.” Southern Style, his fourth studio country album, features his seventh No. 1 single “Homegrown Honey,” co-written by Rucker, label mate Charles Kelley of Lady Antebellum and Nathan Chapman. Rucker’s last single, “If I Told You,” is his eighth No. 1 on country radio and the first cut from When Was The Last Time, his forthcoming fifth album for Capitol Nashville, due out October 20.

Lady Antebellum’s Charles Kelley Teams With Topgolf For Summer Video Series

Charles Kelley of seven-time GRAMMY® award-winning trio Lady Antebellum has partnered with global sports entertainment leader Topgolf® for an exclusive eight-episode video series titled “The Hook.” Focused on three of Charles’ favorite things – friends, golf and music – “The Hook” will be filmed during downtime from the multi-Platinum trio’s YOU LOOK GOOD WORLD TOUR. Charles, alongside his brother John Kelley, will host special guests such as Darius Rucker, Kaitlyn Bristowe and Shawn Booth from “The Bachelorette,” Hope Solo, and Charles’ brother Josh Kelley.

“Growing up in Augusta, Ga., golf came second nature to me, and now it’s something I look forward to when I’m not on the road or spending time with family,” said Kelley. “I always have a blast at Topgolf, so having my golfing buddies like Darius sign up to come out with me for this is going to be a really good time.”

“The Hook” will have a variety show feel, featuring Kelley’s celebrity friends and family, music and, of course, a little friendly competition. The episodes will air on Thursdays throughout June and September, beginning June 8, on topgolf.com. “The Hook” is produced by INE Entertainment, and the deal was brokered by Creative Artists Agency (CAA).

Topgolf is opening a flagship sports entertainment venue in Nashville this fall. The three-level venue features point-scoring golf games using microchipped balls that instantly score themselves, showing players the accuracy and distance of their shots on a TV screen in their hitting bay. The venue will also feature Topgolf Live, a concert venue for ticketed events, plus an outstanding chef-driven menu, top-shelf drinks, big screen TVs and music in climate-controlled hitting bays for all-seasons comfort. The venue’s year-round programming includes events for kids and families, social leagues, golf tournaments, golf instruction and more.

“The Topgolf experience is built on play, food, music and community, and we are excited to share these elements of Charles’ life on tour with Topgolf and Lady Antebellum fans worldwide,” said Topgolf Chief Marketing Officer Brian Radics.
