'DAUGHTRY' SOARS TO #1 SPOT

ON BILLBOARD TOP 200

Self-Titled Debut Album Becomes Multi-format Phenomeon Of 2007

Fastest Selling Rock Debut In Soundscan History

(New York, NY) It's Official: RCA/19 Recordings artist DAUGHTRY has become the multi-format phenomenon of the year, leapfrogging form #4 to #1 spot on The Billboard Top 200 Albums chart, selling over 65,000albums this week as it cements its place as the fastest selling rock debut in Soundscan history. Debuting on November 21 at #2, DAUGHTRY is also the first rock band release in nearly 20 year- since Bon Jovi's 1988 classic New Jersey- to hit the top spot after debuting below #1 in the Top 10. Such amazing milestones cap an incredible 9 week span of other precedent highlights for the debut artist: A Top Ten single at multiple formats including Top 40 with "It's Not Over," a #1 christening on iTunes, a #1 Debut on VH1's highly rated viewer-votes Countdown show, and a near-sold-out tour that runs through mid-spring. DAUGHTRY's commanding reign in the radio, digital, and video domains is virtually unparalleled for a rock newcomer. Competing with a flurry of 'Super Tuesday' releases during it's opening week, (Jay-Z, The Beatles, Johnny Cash and others) DAUGHTRY has proven to be music fans' most popular and enduring currency, delivering what one critic called the most 'contemplative, explosive, insistent (and) honest as it is accessible' record release of the year.

Fronted by rocker Chris Daughtry, the album's kick-off single vaulted into the Top tier of virtually every format and radio playlist across the country - currently Top 10 at both Top 40 and Hot Adult Contemporary and rocketing into the Top 20 at Active Rock. The Video for "It's Not Over," debuted at #1 on VH1's viewer-voted VSPOT Top 20 Countdown, with Chris scheduled to make an appearance on MTV's popular TRL show this Thursday, January 25. DAUGHTRY has also owned the #1 position on iTunes, becoming the most popular new artist of the mobile and digital realm, attracting more than 2 million pageviews to his brand new website www.daughtryofficial.com.

DAUGHTRY's recently announced 2007 Winter Tour kicks off on January 28 at the House of Blues in Anaheim, CA, with a much anticipated west coast romp in Los Angeles, CA at the El Rey Theater on February 1. Fast becoming the hottest rock ticket of the new 2007 concert season, the DAUGHTRY juggernaut will feature special guest Eve to Adam and opening act Cinder Road and run through mid-April, hitting New York City on March 19th. Because of the speed which tickets are selling out, DAUGHTRY is also making a small pool of tickets available to registered members of his website. Log on for details.
Daughtry ROCKS!
