Few artists display the versatility and cross-format appeal of Plumb, who rises this week to her first No. 1 on Billboard's Dance Club/Play Songs chart, as "Hang On" lifts to #1.
The singer/songwriter, aka Tiffany Arbuckle Lee, reached No. 3 on the EDM charts with her sole previous entry, "In My Arms," in 2007. The song led Billboard's Hot Dance Airplay chart and crossed over to a No. 10 peak on Adult Contemporary.
"In My Arms" originally appeared on Plumb's 2007 album "Blink," a collection of lullabies written after the birth of her first two children. That song and her first Hot Dance Airplay hit, the No. 5-peaking "Cut" in 2006, were first released as ballads before being remixed to the delight of clubgoers.
While enjoying success at dance and adult formats, Plumb continues to receive support at her home Christian genre. As "Hang On" has scored acceptance in dance circles, "God Shaped Hole" climbed to No. 32 on Christian Songs last month. Both songs appear on her newly-released album, "Beautiful History - A Hits Collection."
Plumb told Billboard that her chart-topping success is rewarding on both a personal and professional level.
"'Hang On' was written about finding hope when you feel hopeless.
"For it to be No. 1 is not just a fantastic feeling, it's incredibly satisfying knowing I gave my fans what they wanted."
