Dasha’s Viral Anthem Austin Surpasses One Billion Streams on Spotify in Just Two Years
Dasha’s hit single “Austin (Boots Stop Workin’)” has reached a remarkable milestone of over one billion streams on Spotify. This achievement places Dasha among an elite group, as her song is only the second solo female country track to reach this significant figure. The only other solo female song to achieve similar success is Taylor Swift’s iconic “Love Story.”
Austin: A Journey of Empowerment
Dasha, a 25-year-old artist originally from California and now based in Nashville, released her first major single in November 2023. The song emerged from a deeply personal experience, stemming from heartbreak. “I realized how much this song is about empowerment and turning so much anger and hate into such an incredible, beautiful thing,” Dasha reflected on its meaning.
Creative Collaborations Driving Success
The song’s success can be attributed to a combination of Dasha’s strong instincts and key partnerships. Version III and her label Warner Records played a crucial role in promoting the single through radio and online platforms.
Dasha expressed her appreciation for the support she received while emphasizing the rarity of such a breakthrough. “This is my first moment, and I recognize how rare and amazing this is,” she stated. “You don’t usually get this for your first one. This song has brought me my entire career and so many incredible fans.”
