What happens in Vegas doesn't always stay in Vegas!

Chris Young
had a winning night as he not only performed his recent No. 1 smash "Voices," but was honored by being awarded Breakthrough Artist of the Year and Single of the Year for the song at the American Country Awards. The show - which aired live on FOX - is fan voted, making the award especially meaningful.

"I had a blast tonight! I am so thankful for my amazing fans for their support and votes and am thrilled to accept this award," says Young.

"Voices" - co-written by Young, Chris Tompkins and Craig Wiseman - is Young's third consecutive No. 1 smash and shattered a 25-year record earlier this year, marking only the second time in the modern era of Billboard country chart than an artist re-released the same recording to chart-topping status.

Young's current hit song "You," from his new album NEON, is Top 15 and climbing at country radio.
