Touring in partnership with MTV’s Artist To Watch, so far Mahone has been experiencing the kind of success that mere mortals can only dream of.  His latest single, “What About Love,” climbed to the iTunes Top 5 during the first week of release and was tagged “most added” by Top 40 stations everywhere.

Mahone is also a VMA nom, having been awarded that honor in the Artist To Watch category for “What About Love.”

Then there’s his Swift connection, appearing before the multitudes on Taylor Swift’s “Red” tour.
