Chris Tomlin and co-writer Pat Barrett celebrated a platinum RIAA certification for Tomlin’s “Good Good Father” earlier this week, during an album preview party for Barrett’s upcoming self-titled album, which will release July 20.

“I’ve never had the pleasure of giving one of these before,” shared Tomlin as he surprised Barrett with his own Platinum single plaque for “Good Good Father.” “This is absolute recognition for a song that has had the very special, undeniable touch that has connected people directly to God. I am honored to have been be a part of this.”

Barrett is the flagship artist on Tomlin’s newly-announced imprint label, Bowyer & Bow (in partnership with Capitol CMG). Barrett’s debut single “The Way (New Horizon)” is at radio now. Barrett will head out on Tomlin’s “Good Good Father” Tour in Canada this fall, which follows his spring run performing on the “Worship Night in America” Tour.
