As announced by Billboard and dick clark productions, GRAMMY Award-winning group Little Big Town is slated to perform their latest smash single, “Girl Crush,” on this month’s Billboard Music Awards. The haunting lead vocals from Karen Fairchild will be paired with special guest, superstar Faith Hill, to add another powerful dimension to the heart-wrenching ballad. The awards air Live from Las Vegas May 17 at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
“Girl Crush” saw record sales last week following Little Big Town’s performance on the Academy of Country Music Awards. Once again, the ACM Vocal Group of the Year sees record-setting sales figures on their current Top 20 single. Clearing a 13% sales growth taking the weekly total to over 109,500 tracks, this marks the second straight week “Girl Crush” has set the largest one-week sales figure for a Country track in 2015. It is also the No. 3 most-downloaded song across all genres. Overall sales for the song currently top 630,000, and while sales are moving faster than the paperwork, “Girl Crush” is also now officially RIAA-certified GOLD. (The single qualified for Gold recognition after last week’s sales high.)
“Girl Crush” is the follow-up single to Little Big Town’s No. 1, Gold-selling single, “Day Drinking,” off the group’s ACM-nominated Album of the Year, Pain Killer (Capitol Records).
