‘Catch of the Day’ – Chris Young ft Cassadee Pope – “Think of You” [VIDEO]

Today we feature two artists who both first came to our attention on Singing competition shows; he was a Nashville Star, she showed that she had a Voice.

Chris Young first came to Nashville in 2006, being named the winner of season 4 of Nashville Star, signing with RCA Records Nashville soon after, releasing his debut album later in the year, which met with limited success. With his 2009 album, The Man I Want To Be, the promise he showed on Nashville Star, began to shine through. The album produced the first 3 of 5 consecutive #1 singles: "Gettin' You Home (The Black Dress Song)", "The Man I Want I Want To Be" and "Voices".

2011's Neon produced two more #1 hits: "Tomorrow" and "You", as well as the top-10 hit "I Can Take It From There". He has released two more albums in the preceding years, A.M. in 2013 and I'm Comin' Over in October of last year. The title track of the 2015 album reached the top of the Country charts in December.

In 2012, Cassadee Pope was a contestant on the 3rd season of The Voice. Already an established artist as the lead singer of the pop/punk band Hey Monday, who had released a studio album and three EP's, she put the band on hiatus to compete on the reality program, shifting styles when Blake Shelton took her under his wing; it was a good choice for Pope.

Pope was named the winner of season 3 in December of 2012 and signed with Repubic Records Nashville in January of 2013. On May 31stst, her first single, "Wasting All These Tears", debuted at #34 on the Billboard Country chart, selling over 125,000 copies in its first week. The song peaked at #5 on the chart, and was the lead for Pope's debut album, Frame By Frame, which was released later that year, debuting at #1 on the Country Albums chart. The albums second single "I Wish I Could Break Your Heart" failed to crack the top-30, peaking at #34. Pope spent 2014 and 2015 touring with Tim McGraw and Dierks Bentley.

The second single from Young's I'm Coming Over album, featuring Pope, is in our spotlight today. Chris Young and Cassadee Pope with "Think Of You" is today's Catch of the Day, new music you haven't heard, but you'll want to hear it again.
