Michael Ray is 4th of July Guinness World Record Holder

Michael Ray has a lot of great 4th of July memories from over the years, “We all throw the big fireworks and gather around the lake and drink and grill and have fun.”

But there’s one particular celebration that stands out when he thinks about the American holiday – it was the one where he became a World Record holder.

Michael explains, “I was a part of a Guinness world record with the biggest amount of sparklers lit at once at a show. so technically I have a Guinness World Record hanging up in the apartment from Haines City for their Fourth of July bash that they threw, there were like 997 or 96 sparklers lit at once, and we took it from Japan, so it was cool.”

Michael Ray will be enjoying his Fourth of July this year – and then he’ll be hitting the road as country music is rolling out after a year and half of being stuck at home.

His song “Whiskey and Rain” is climbing the country music chart – check out the music video right here…
