BROOKS & DUNN CONTINUE TO HIT NEW MILESTONES WITH MULTI-PLATINUM RIAA CERTIFICATIONS FOR “NEON MOON” AND “BOOT SCOOTIN’ BOOGIE”
Thirty-five years after introducing the world to Brooks & Dunn, songs from the duo’s landmark debut album BRAND NEW MAN continue to resonate with fans old and new. Today, the Country Music Hall of Famers add two new RIAA certifications to their enduring catalog, with “Neon Moon” now certified 8x PLATINUM and “Boot Scootin’ Boogie” reaching 5x PLATINUM. Originally released on BRAND NEW MAN in 1991, both songs helped launch Brooks & Dunn’s record-setting career and helped define a generation of country music.
The new certifications arrive during a milestone year for Brooks & Dunn, who are celebrating the 35th anniversary of BRAND NEW MAN with the album’s first-ever vinyl pressing, arriving October 23. The groundbreaking collection produced four consecutive No. 1 singles, “Brand New Man,” “My Next Broken Heart,” “Neon Moon” and “Boot Scootin’ Boogie,” and helped define a generation of country music while laying the foundation for one of the most successful careers in the genre’s history.
Brooks & Dunn continue to prove their relevance in real time, recently launching their headlining NEON MOON TOUR, with three sold-out shows including Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena. Throughout the fall, the duo will continue to bring timeless songs, nostalgia, and undeniable energy to sold out venues across the country. The most awarded artists in CMA history, the duo are once again nominated for “Vocal Duo Of The Year,” and are set to receive the Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award, one of country music’s highest honors, at the CMA Awards this November.
