GRAMMY® Award-nominated, 8x RIAA diamond-certified, recent recipient of the Songwriters Hall of Fame “Hal Davis Starlight Award,” Post Malone has released his highly anticipated fifth full-length record AUSTIN via Mercury Records/Republic Records – listen here. The album, self-titled after Post’s legal name, is yet another shift in sound for Post. The album features all live instrumentation produced by Post and his longtime collaborators Louis Bell and Andrew Watt.
Post is currently in the middle of the North America run of his ‘If Y’all Weren’t Here, I’d Be Crying’ Tour, a 26-date run – his first with a full live band backing him – produced by Live Nation, that wraps it’s US run at San Bernardino’s Glen Helen Amphitheater on August 19. The show features Post’s signature exhilarating performance with three new songs from his newly released album AUSTIN as well as fan-favorites in a completely reimagined show. See below for a list of remaining tour dates.
One of those new tracks from AUSTIN, ‘Something Real’, has been selected as ESPN’s season-long anthem for their upcoming college football coverage, which begins Aug. 31. The new song will be featured in ESPN college football programming, promotion, and games throughout the season.
Post will also release the Vevo Official Live Performance of “Green Thumb” today at 12pm ET, you’ll be able to view it HERE. Previously he had released the video for “Overdrive” which you can view HERE/ Vevo’s Official Live Performances are the result of close creative collaboration with artists and their teams, resulting in a series of very special exclusive performances.
Last week, Post Malone surprised fans with a pop-up album listening party on the TSX Entertainment stage in Times Square. Post kicked off the performance with “Overdrive” off the new album before performing fan favorite tracks, “Circles” and “Sunflower.” Post also performed “Enough is Enough” and “Chemical” from the new record, before finishing with “Congratulations.”
Earlier this year, Post’s song “Sunflower” (with Swae Lee) reached 18x-platinum, becoming the “the highest platinum-certified single of all-time.” He also broke the record for the “most RIAA diamond-certified singles from any artist,” in which he now has 8 RIAA diamond-certified records, those of which include “White Iverson,” “Congratulations (feat. Quavo),” “I Fall Apart,” “Rockstar (feat. 21 Savage),” “Psycho (feat. Ty Dolla $ign),” “Better Now,” “Sunflower (with Swae Lee)” and “Circles.”
