Travis Denning’s “After a Few” is the little engine that could.
After 65 weeks, the tune has reached No. 1 on the Billboard Country Airplay chart, marking the longest trip to the top. Jimmie Allen’s “Make Me Want To” previously held the record at 58 weeks. In addition, “After a Few” marks the longest tenure a song has had on the Billboard Country Airplay chart, surpassing the 59-week run of “Make Me Want To.”
Travis released the single in January 2019. Penned by Travis, Kelly Archer and Justin Weaver, the single is featured on Travis’ new six-song EP, Beer’s Better Cold (May 15).
“I’m so grateful for this number one,” says Travis. “To see it get up the charts was a dream come true that I first had when I was 14 years old. This has only helped fuel the fire to want to get back on the road and sing country music for some country lovin’ people.”
