BMI gathered Nashville’s music community together to celebrate the third consecutive No. One “Brunette” from Back Blocks Music/MCA/Mercury Records hitmaker Tucker Wetmore on Tuesday, August 11. The RIAA GOLD-certified track written by Chase McGill (BMI), Josh Miller (BMI), Blake Pendergrass (BMI) and producer Chris LaCorte (GMR), marks the third chart-topper from Wetmore’s debut album, What Not To. The chart topper lends its name to his first-ever headlining run, The Brunette World Tour, which is currently underway.

Hosted by BMI and emceed by BMI’s Leslie Roberts, the ACM New Male Artist of the Year was reunited with his collaborators to share remarks about the song’s success. “Brunette” is McGill’s 18th No. One, Miller’s 9th No. One, Pendergrass’s 7th No. One and LaCorte’s 6th No. One as a songwriter.

Sponsored by Studio Bank, Kari Barnhart made a special donation presentation on behalf of Wetmore and the songwriters in support of Face The Fight, an organization focused on preventing veteran suicide and providing essential support to those in need. The official whiskey of BMI No. One parties, Green River Whiskey, gifted each collaborator with a special bottle of single barrel bourbon in honor of their hit.
