For many, George Birge will be the first act that folks see at the Maine Savings Amphitheater in 2024. He will be kicking off the 2024 summer concert season here in Bangor on May 26th, alongside Parker McCollum and Corey Kent for the ‘Burn it Down Tour 2024.’

If you've been living under a rock, George Birge is an Austin, Texas native who recently took the country music scene by storm with his hit song ‘Mind on You’ climbing the charts in late 2023 and early 2024, eventually reaching that coveted #1 spot.

He’s fulfilled a lifelong dream not only for himself but for aspiring artists: having a #1 country song in the nation.

Getting a #1 country song in the, well, country, is not easy. If it was, everyone would have one. George’s success story is an inspiration to anyone chasing their dreams in the music industry, and we were so excited to chat with him.

George Birge called into Q106.5 to chat with Jordan Verge—two names that sound very similar, by the way—about the upcoming waterfront concert season at the Maine Savings Amphitheater.

They discussed how George celebrated having a #1 hit and the story behind almost giving the song away. George also reminisced about his last visit to Bangor when he opened for the late Toby Keith in 2016.

Additionally, looking ahead, George shared exciting plans for what's next in his music career.
