Chris Young is currently enjoying some time in Canada as part of a run of dates on Brad Paisley’s Beat This Summer Tour. The shows kicked off last week and continue with four more dates beginning this Wednesday in Winnipeg and concluding Saturday in Edmonton, and Chris says that he always enjoys the chance to make a little music for the fans north of the border.

• Ever had Poutine? (poo-teen) Chris says that if you’re ever in Canada, you need to give this dish a try, as he tweeted this pic from @ChrisYoungMusic on Friday. So, what is it? It’s actually a dish of French fries, cheese curds, and a kind of gravy!
• Chris is now Top 5 and climbing the U.S. airplay charts with his smash, “Aw Naw,” the first single and first big hit from his new A.M. album.
• Chris recently restored the rusty 1996 Ford F150 truck — now with 240,000 miles — that saw him through his early days of trying to make it in the music business. Check out the story from this weekend’s Tennessean, right here.
