The Eli Young Band was recently honored with custom plaques commemorating their Platinum achievements at the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) headquarters.
The accolades include their Platinum album Life At Best, five-time Platinum single “Crazy Girl,” and triple-Platinum chart-topping hit “Even If It Breaks Your Heart.”
This celebration took place ahead of their sold-out "10 Years: 10,000 Towns Tour" stop in Washington, D.C.
The band—comprised of Mike Eli, James Young, Jon Jones, and Chris Thompson—also recently released deluxe and vinyl editions of their 10,000 Towns collection and have teased that new music is on the horizon.
“We are so honored to once again celebrate with Mike, James, Jon, and Chris!
Holding tight to their Texas roots while finding fans in all corners of the country, it’s incredible to recognize the reach of Eli Young Band’s music,” said Mitch Glazier, RIAA Chairman & CEO. “Congratulations on your new RIAA certifications!”
“‘Keep on dreaming…’ is a perfect lyric for Eli Young Band,” expressed Mike Eli. “Since college, that is exactly what the four of us have done, and we are continuously grateful for these moments.
"We see the impact of our incredibly loyal fans, and these RIAA certifications are as much for them as they are for us. Thank you to our team, our road family, and everyone who has supported our dreams! Now let’s find a spot in the bus to hang this new hardware… see you all on the road!”
