Chris Young sings “I’m Comin’ Over” on his newest hit, and he’s actually come a long way over, taking his world tour overseas for the second time this year. In March, Chris played Australia, South Korea, and Japan, and this month’s nine sold-out shows span Switzerland, England, Scotland, Ireland, Germany, and Sweden. And one thing that Chris has learned is that there are fans who know and love his music everywhere he goes. (AUDIO INFO BELOW)

- In a press release this past Tuesday, Chris remarked, “This is my third year of touring overseas and the audiences blow me away every time. That being said, the sold out crowd at the O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire in London last night was absolutely one of the best crowds I’ve ever played for! They packed the house and sang along and just have this love for country music – it’s mind-blowing!”

Chris Young is knocked out by the enthusiasm of international audiences for his music. (:11)
“It’s crazy…flying, gettin’ on a plane, goin’ to another part of the world, gettin’ off, goin’, ‘I hope someone knows any of this,’ and you find a lot of people that know all of it.”
Chris Young once got a tip from Brad Paisley that international audiences really know their music. (:24)
“Brad Paisley warned me a long time ago, he goes, ‘Man, they will find songs; they will gravitate to whatever they naturally want.’ And he goes, ‘I had like an acoustic part in my show,’ and he goes, ‘I would ask the crowd what they wanted to hear.’ He goes, ‘We got over to Europe, they started askin’ for stuff off, like, my first record that was an album cut — it was like, track seven — and I was like, “Oh, man, I wrote that, and I don’t even remember it.”‘ And, it’s totally true.”
Chris Young says that international audiences go online to find a lot of country music. (:17)
“I think the overseas crowd is great because they don’t really have like a country radio station. It’s just, they have a station that plays everything that’s popular, and for them to go out and really find American country music, they get online.”
Chris Young says it’s a great feeling to know that the music he creates in Nashville can touch listeners worldwide. (:11)
“It was really weird standin’ on a stage in Australia in front of 10,000 people. It’s unbelievable that I have the chance to do that off of, you know, makin’ records in a studio in Nashville.”
