Dylan Marlowe’s "Boys Back Home" Certified Gold
Sony Music Nashville’s Dylan Marlowe reached a new milestone with his single “Boys Back Home” (feat. Dylan Scott) being certified gold by the RIAA, marking his first-ever gold single.
Ahead of his Nashville show yesterday, Sony Music Nashville and Play It Again Music surprised Marlowe with a celebratory toast and presented him with a plaque to commemorate the achievement during an intimate gathering with his family, friends, and team. Marlowe’s “Boys Back Home” (feat. Dylan Scott) continues to garner success, earning 138 million streams worldwide and currently sitting in the Top 25 and climbing at country radio.
Marlowe celebrated the release of his debut album, Mid-Twenties Crisis, by treating his fans to a free headlining show on the mainstage of Nashville’s Cannery Hall, leading to a capacity crowd. Marlowe opened the show with a rocking performance of the album’s first track, “Heaven’s Sake,” later playing “The Fence” solo and acoustic, sharing the story of how his wife, Nat, inspired the track. Marlowe also connected with the audience, asking if anyone was in their 20s – resulting in explosive cheers – before launching into the story behind his debut album’s title track, “Mid-Twenties Crisis,” and then delivering a heartfelt performance of the song. The packed crowd sang along throughout the show, with attendees especially excited for Marlowe’s encore, a high-energy rendition of “Boys Back Home.”
In addition to his Nashville show, Marlowe also recently announced his headlining “Mid-Twenties Crisis Tour” for 2025. Marlowe will hit the road in January, with the first show of the tour taking place in New York City at the Gramercy Theatre on Jan. 23. The tour will feature a total of 12 dates, each in a different state. Tickets can be purchased HERE.
Additionally, Marlowe released his debut album, Mid-Twenties Crisis, on 9/27. The album embodies the roller coaster of life in one’s twenties, with Marlowe infusing several of the songs with inspiration from his own life. With 15 tracks all co-written by Marlowe, the project can be streamed HERE.
Rooted in the classic skills of country music’s past – but finding new ways to deliver three chords and the truth – Dylan Marlowe is an emerging Sony Music Nashville artist proving tradition and convention are very different things. Raised in Statesboro, Georgia, the avid outdoorsman’s unique creative path began with an equally-diverse soundtrack, ranging from Eric Church and Kenny Chesney to Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Good Charlotte and Blink-182. A self-taught writer fusing heartland storytelling with hard-edged intensity, Marlowe broke out with an attention-grabbing cover of Olivia Rodrigo’s “drivers license” in 2021, changing the lyrics to reflect his own backwoods story and resulting in more than half-a-million TikTok followers. Marlowe went on to drop a series of self-penned singles and EPs like “Record High” and Dirt Road When I Die, eventually racking up 328 million global career streams as an artist, while co-penning Jon Pardi’s Number One hit, “Last Night Lonely.” The 2023 anthem “Boys Back Home” (feat. Dylan Scott) has accounted for more than 138 million streams while becoming his first country radio single, and Marlowe has continued to cultivate an audience on tour with Dan + Shay, Cole Swindell, Hardy, Brantley Gilbert and more. Standing apart from his peers while staying true to himself, the rising star reminds country fans that authenticity doesn’t have to be boring. And in fact, the expected might be overrated.
