Riley Green’s “There Was a Girl” Reaches No. 1 on Mediabase Chart

After 40 weeks at country radio, Riley Green’s debut single, “There Was a Girl,” has reached No. 1 on the Mediabase chart.

Co-penned by Riley and Erik Dylan, “There Was a Girl” is featured on Riley’s major-label debut EP, In a Truck Right Now, which was released in June 2018 by Big Machine. Every track on the four-song EP, which Dan Huff produced, was co-penned by Riley.

“I just want to thank everyone for the last year of my life,” says Riley. “To go from framing houses back home to having the number one song in country music is pretty amazing. Huge shoutout to country radio for playing my song, BMLG for believing in a kid from Alabama and Erik Dylan for writing this song with me. And I can’t thank my fans enough for supporting me from day one—hope to see you all on the road soon.”
