The recording's second single "She Cranks My Tractor" became the singer/songwriter's second top-20 hit in early 2013 and was followed by "Wild in Your Smile," which made the top 30.
In early 2014, Lynch released his fourth single and the lead from his second album Where It's At. The song became Lynch's first number-one single on the Country Airplay chart in September of 2014, and as the album's second and third singles, "Hell of a Night" and "Mind Reader" also went on to top the Country Airplay charts. "Seein' Red," the lead single from Lynch's third studio album Current Mood, hit number one on the Country Airplay chart, as did its follow-up single "Small Town Boy," and the recording that both songs originated from became the country star's highest-charting album on the Billboard 200, peaking at number seven.
