Chart-topping 23-year-old Austin Mahone is set to have the biggest year of his career in 2019, beginning with the release of his new single "Why Don't We." The song marks Austin's first new solo music since 2016 and reflects his mature new direction over the past few years, which included collaborations with Hardwell, Codeko and 2 Chainz. Since breaking out in 2013 with the release of his debut EP, which notched a top 5 position on the Billboard 200, Austin has continuously rolled out music for his dedicated Mahomies, including the 2014 single "Mmm Yeah" which soared to #2 on the iTunes chart and broke the Top 20 on the Pop Songs Chart. In 2015, he released an aptly-named mixtape This Is Not the Album, which was followed by the 2016 release of his ForMe+You mixtape. Austin has headlined his own sold-out tours, including MTV's Artist to Watch tour, following his debut on the road as an opener on Taylor Swift's RED Tour in 2013. His many awards and honors include a MTV Video Music Award and wins at the MTV EMAs, iHeartRadio Music Awards, Radio Disney Music Awards, Teen Choice Awards and the Young Hollywood Awards. He has performed on Good Morning America, appeared on the Today Show, Live! With Kelly & Michael and has graced the covers of Teen Vogue and YRB as well as garnered high-profile print features in Details, Entertainment Weekly, USA Today, Wall Street Journal, and more.
