Nichols reaches the top
Nichols will take over from Keith Urban and Miranda Lambert, who were first with We Were Us.
The lead single from Nichols' new album "Crickets," reached number one on both the Billboard Hot Country Songs Chart and the Country Aircheck/ USA Today chart.
This is Nichols' fifth number one single. "Whether it's your first number one record or your 50th, seeing your song at the top of the charts never gets old," said Nichols. "Thanks to the incredible team at Red Bow, everyone at country radio and my incredible fans for making Sunny And 75 my fifth number one song. God is good."
Nichols will appear as a presenter on the 4th Annual American Country Awards which airs live from the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas on Tuesday, Dec. 10 on FOX at 8 p.m. eastern.

Then again, there's a time to weep and a time to rejoice. And Joe Nichols does a little of both on his "Good Day for Living" album.
To prove this point, Nichols follows his tearjerker opener with "I Got ...
Joe Nichols is best known by many as the guy that sings "Tequila Makes Her Clothes Fall Off," so it seems like more than mere coincidence how "Never Gets Old" opens with "Diamonds Make Babies," another song featuring a lyrical example of anthropomorphism. Such a lyrical tactic may grow tiresome quick, but hearing Nichols' resonant, traditional country singing voice will never ever get old.
Nichols is an extremely expressive singer, which is why he can sing ...
Joe Nichols suffers from a split personality. With a fine voice like his and songs from his past like Brokenheartsville, Nichols is strongly positioned to lay claim to being one of the very few last traditional country singers standing.
