SiriusXM's The Highway was the first outlet to play Cole Swindell's "Chillin' It" when it was added to rotation as a "Highway Find" in May, 2013, before he signed with Warner Bros. Records. Swindell's smash "Chillin' It" recently reached No. 1 on the national Country music charts and his self-titled debut album is now available.

"We're thrilled to celebrate Cole's achievements with this exclusive concert for SiriusXM subscribers."

After the broadcast, the performance will be available on SiriusXM On Demand for listeners listening via the SiriusXM Internet Radio App for smartphones and other mobile devices or online at siriusxm.com.
