charts

It's fun to watch new artists make their way through the twists and turns of the country music business. Let's face it... some of them get there (wherever 'there' is) and some of them don't. I will say this, it seems like the "American Idol" alumni have a little bit of a head start on everyone else.

This week, Eric Church dominates the top of the country singles chart with his latest release, ‘Drink in My Hand.’

It's amazing how slowly the wheels turn in the country music business. It's equally amazing how quickly a star can rise once the wheels are in motion.

Lady Antebellum’s “Just a Kiss” has claimed the top spot on the Billboard country chart for a second week in a row and climbed to #1 on the Country Aircheck chart, taking the place of the Zac Brown Band and Jimmy Buffet's "Knee Deep".
