Gary tried running with the young dogs when he released a new R&B-inspired single in March of 2015 called “Hangover Tonight.” However the single couldn’t crack the Top 40 on country radio, and came in at an embarrassing #49 on Billboard’s Hot Country Songs chart.

However, MCA Nashville continues to reissue past country releases from Decca, as well as those on the Kapp label. With the absorption of MCA Records into Geffen Records in 2003, and in 2021 where UMG legally changed the name for its Philippine division , MCA Nashville is now the only unit of UMG to still use the MCA name.
