Remember Bucky Covington?

Bucky

Apparently, he’s doing quite well for himself these days:

Bucky Covington hit another career milestone this week as his first single, “A Different World,� cracks the Top 10 on country radio, delivering the country singer his first Top 10 hit. The song is currently reaching a weekly audience of 21 million listeners.

Bucky Covington’s self-titled CD debuted at #1 on Nielsen SoundScan’s Country Top 75 Chart with not only 2007’s biggest unit debut from a new country artist, but also the best first week sales and highest Top 200 debut for any new male country artist since Billy Ray Cyrus in 1992.

He always seemed like a genuinely nice guy to me. Go, Bucky!
