Craig Wayne Boyd, officially less than two full weeks removed from winning season 7 of "The Voice" as part of Team Blake, did what only Garth Brooks has done before him.  Not even Garth did it as a debut single for a career.

Craig's debut single, "My Baby's Got a Smile on Her Face", written by Stephanie Urbina Jones and Mark Marchetti, debuted at #1 on the Billboard Country Charts, a feat equaled only by Garth Brooks with his 2007 single "More Than a Memory", and a full decade and-a-half after Brooks had established himself in the country music world.

Boyd's a seasoned vet at 36-years-old, having hit the road in the past with opening gigs for Randy Houser and others.  This, however, is a new stratosphere for Craig Wayne Boyd.  Boyd will be out on tour in January, this time with his own opening act in support.
