Dan + Shay have scored their 11th career chart-topper with “Bigger Houses.”

The duo took to Instagram on Monday to share a lengthy message to celebrate their new milestone and thank their fans, co-writers and team.

“Anytime you get to ring the bell, it’s a career highlight and a huge win to celebrate with everyone involved, but this song is extra special for so many reasons. Not only is it the title track to the album that saved our band, but it is a message of gratitude and appreciation that has truly inspired the way we live,” Dan + Shay write. “Knowing that this song has resonated with so many people, like it has with us, is the ultimate validation.”

Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney also acknowledged the challenge “Bigger Houses” posed for their record label with it being a slow, stripped-down song.

“Thank you to our @warnermusicnashville team for championing this one all the way to the top of the chart. It’s not lost on us that working a song like this (no drums or shiny production) is a challenge, but you faced it head-on and delivered, like you always do,” they wrote. “Thank you to our country radio family for taking a chance on this song, and helping us share it with millions and millions of listeners, week after week.”

The message wrapped with a shoutout to their fans.

“You have always stood by us, through every high and every low, and we are forever grateful. You believed in this song since the day we released it, and gave us the confidence to make it a single,” the Grammy-winning duo shares.

“Bigger Houses” is the second single and title track of their 2023 album.
