<p class="wp-block-paragraph">His self-funded Lyric Ridge Records continues to push the song up the charts, making major headway each week with buzz growing around the track. If it reaches the No. 1 spot, he will be the only self-funded artist to reach that milestone on their first No. 1 song.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The RIAA GOLD-certified “She’s Somebody’s Daughter” has also reached nearly 1 billion social media impressions and streams without the support of editorial playlists on the major streaming partners. Baldridge recently shared the incredible story of believing in himself with Bobby Bones’ “<a href="https://click.mlsend.com/link/c/YT0yNTE0Njc4NTY5MTg0MDA3MzQwJmM9ZjBhNyZlPTUwOTUzMzk5JmI9MTMzNzI1NTI5MSZkPWM4azV4MnQ=.2c-z3dnbq4_449PtP6QwsO1_c-hi_7kOiJyI7wCnCoY" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bobbycast</a>” and <a href="https://click.mlsend.com/link/c/YT0yNTE0Njc4NTY5MTg0MDA3MzQwJmM9ZjBhNyZlPTUwOTUzMzk5JmI9MTMzNzI1NTMwMSZkPWk1cDdyM2g=.Ud7P1QuPpA8oF--CZXTewQSiRC73qi2OsM52TV4Bo-8" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><em>Country Now</em></a><em>. </em>Bones’ called the interview one of his “favorites” and was “blown away” by Baldridge’s journey over the past decade in Nashville.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">After nearly four years of managing himself and booking his own shows, it was announced last week that Baldridge has signed with UTA for representation. This is a major step for the singer/songwriter who has played over 400 shows in the past three years.</p>
