Priscilla Block is having one of the best weeks of her life. She is celebrating her first No. 1 song on country radio with Justin Moore (this is his 12th chart-topper) with “You, Me, And Whiskey.” The pair face-timed earlier this week to celebrate their chart-topper, and Priscilla couldn’t contain her emotions. She said in a post on her socials, “It’s taken me a couple days to process this… but I’m starting to realize that dreams really do come true. I have my first number one at country radio. Justin Moore thank you for trusting me with this song.I have learned so much from you throughout this. You’ve went above and beyond to reach down and pull the next artist up and that’s not something you see every day. I will forever be grateful for this and I can only hope that someday I can return the favor to a new artist like myself. Also, huge thank you to our teams, COUNTRY RADIO, and most of all the fans! We love you. Here’s to many more!!!”

Priscilla thanks Country Radio and the fans for believing in her. “I am so excited to say that I have my first-ever No. 1 at country radio,” she says. “This is the craziest thing ever! It definitely is such a highlight for me and my career. Gosh, I feel like I have so many people to thank, but Country Music, thank you so much for changing my life. Thank you for believing in me since day one. To the fans – we love you! It’s you, me and whiskey all night long, baby.”

The duet, which is featured on Justin’s recently released Stray Dog album, was written by Jessi Alexander, Brock Berryhill and Cole Taylor,  and it marks Justin’s 12th career No. 1 and Priscilla’s first-ever chart-topper.

In other news, Priscilla recently released a new song, called “Fake Names.” In addition to her own headlining shows, she is getting ready to hit the road with Old Dominion on their No Bad Vibes Tour this fall and will also be on tour with Justin for another leg of the You, Me, And Whiskey Tour later this year.

She’s also celebrating her birthday today (August 10th).

Priscilla Block is enjoying her first-ever No. 1 hit on the country charts with Justin Moore and their duet, “You, Me, And Whiskey.”

Justin posted on his socials from his family vacation at the beach that he feels like a “proud older brother. PB has an incredible future ahead of her in this business. She’s super talented, and an awesome person. Those 2 things alone, will carry her far. I’m hopeful, she allows me to open for her in a few years.”

First #1 that South man really gets to enjoy, knowing what it means. Happy to be able to celebrate #12 with my family, while on vacation. I can’t thank the fans and country radio enough for supporting this song. To have our 12th, and be a part of @priscillablock’s 1st, is… pic.twitter.com/qWwdb0pgBu

The duet, which is featured on Justin’s recently released Stray Dog album, was written by Jessi Alexander, Brock Berryhill and Cole Taylor,  and it marks Justin’s 12th career No. 1 and Priscilla’s first-ever chart-topper.

In other news, Priscilla just released a new song, called “Fake Names,” this past Friday (August 4th). In addition to her own headlining shows, she is getting ready to hit the road with Old Dominion on their No Bad Vibes Tour this fall and will also be on tour with Justin for another leg of the You, Me, And Whiskey Tour later this year.

Country music’s favorite party-starter, Priscilla Block, releases her latest track, “Fake Names” – available now. The song, written by Block, Alysa Vanderheym, Summer Overstreet and Audra Mae, celebrates the escapism we all need from time to time and encourages letting loose and giving your inner “Blackout Brittney” a night out on the town.

“When we wrote ‘Fake Names,’ it was just such a fun process,” shares Block. “I mean, four girls in one room writing about letting loose with your girlfriends and having different identities for the night. You know, you always have that one friend that drinks too much, or the girl that’s starting fights in the bar, or the one that might get arrested by the end of the night. It’s just a really fun song about going out and being someone totally different for the night.”

Block and country star Justin Moore recently released an acoustic version of their hit duet, “You, Me, And Whiskey.” Last week, the cinematic music video for the song reached the No. 1 spot on CMT’s Hot 20 Countdown. The song also took the No. 1 spot on Music Row’s Country Breakout Radio Chart and is currently sitting in the Top 5 on the country radio airplay charts.
