Chris Young Is Hoping New Single, “Losing Sleep,” Has the Makings of a Winner at Country Radio [Listen]

Chris Young is giving fans the first taste of new music from his upcoming sixth studio album.

Today (May 12), Chris dropped “Losing Sleep,” the first single from the upcoming project. Penned by Chris, Josh Hoge and Chris DeStefano, “Losing Sleep” falls into Chris’ sexy-song wheelhouse a la “Gettin’ You Home” and “I’m Comin’ Over,” mixing an up-tempo beat with PG-13 lyrics. Chris’ longtime fans will immediately recognize his rich baritone, while the production sounds friendly enough for what’s been lighting up the charts recently at country radio.

“You don’t want to make the same song over and over or the same sounds over and over on every record,” said Chris to the Tennessean. “I think it’s still very much me. I don’t think anyone is going to hear it and think it doesn’t sound like me as an artist. It’s very, very forward production wise and definitely once the chorus hits, it’s a tempo. It’s a nice balance, and I think you have to have all of that.”

Check out the new tune below.
