(EBM) For the second time in his career, Morgan Wallen walked onstage to a stadium full of fans last Friday night (April 14), this time setting the attendance record as 39,609 packed the stands. Soaking in his first of 58 shows in North America this year, on night one of two back-to-back plays at Milwaukee's MLB American Family Field Wallen's energy-packed set encapsulated his excitement in returning stateside to once again deliver his hits to the very fans who made them a success.

The tour name pays homage to his third studio album One Thing At A Time, which remains at the top of the Billboard 200 chart, where it has been parked for five consecutive weeks and counting. Hailed by New York Times as a "hit-stuffed streaming blockbuster," the album continues to break records, the latest surpassing Drake to become the artist with the most songs simultaneously charting on the Billboard Hot 100, with all 36 songs atop the chart.

The streaming success of the album once again launched Wallen to the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Artist 100 all-genre chart for his 11th career week, becoming the only core country artist to simultaneously rule the Artist 100, Hot 100 & Billboard 200 charts.

One Thing At A Time has already yielded two No. 1 hits with 10-week No. 1 "You Proof" - the longest No. 1 in Country radio history - and "Thought You Should Know," which remained at the top of country airplay charts for three consecutive weeks. Current singles "One Thing At A Time" and "Last Night" remain in the top-20-and-climbing on country radio, while "Last Night" continues to see success on pop charts, becoming Wallen's first No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 all-genre chart.

Internationally, the album continues to soar, as it reaches its fifth consecutive week at No. 1 on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart, with "Last Night" sitting at No. 1 on the Canadian Top 200 Songs chart.

Wallen's One Night At A Time World Tour is produced by Live Nation in North America/United Kingdom and Frontier Touring for Australia/New Zealand. It kicked off overseas March 15-25 with shows in New Zealand and Australia with HARDY, and continued stateside with tonight's show at American Family Field with HARDY; hitting New Jersey's MetLife Stadium, Chicago's Wrigley Field and Boston's Fenway Park with Parker McCollum. The tour will return overseas this fall with stops in Canada before heading to The O2 in London on Dec. 3. ERNEST and Bailey Zimmerman will support across North American dates.
