It's Luke Bryan's 'Party' And He Can Stay Atop The Charts If He Wants To!


Luke Bryan John Mayer Jimmy Buffett Earl Sweatshirt

Luke Bryan has remained at the top of the US Billboard Charts for the second week with his new album 'Crash My Party', narrowly beating John Mayer's new release 'Paradise Valley'.

The country star may have suffered a dramatic 70% decline in sales from the first week by only selling 159,000 copies this week as opposed to last week's 528,000, but John Mayer still needed to be up 144,000 to have had a chance at the top spot this week. 'Crash My Party' is the fourth studio album from Luke and his first to top the US, the US Country and the Canada charts, his previous album 'Tailgates & Tanlines' only scraping the top spot on the Country chart.

John Mayer is a little more used to success, his 2012 album 'Born and Raised' hitting number one across the world and even securing a spot at number 4 on the UK charts - an unlikely place to be for an American country record. A possible hindrance for 'Paradise Valley''s success could be that his performance of new single 'Wildfire' on 'The Late Show with David Letterman' wound up not being aired due to CBS' own problems with Time Warner Cable.

According to Billboard, the Nielsen SoundScan shows that Bryan's album is around 15,000 copies better off than his nearest competitor; John Mayer's Paradise Valley, a debut album in the album chart. It wasn't just Mayer whose latest release Bryan was fighting off either, as new releases; Three Kings by R&B supergroup TGT, Jimmy Buffett's Songs From St. Somewhere and rapper and Odd Future affiliate Earl Sweatshirt's debut album, Doris. Another debut hip-hop release, Trap Lord by A$AP Ferg, also entered the top ten, coming in a nine.

Bryan has captured the heart of the Nashville country music scene and will definitely be a constant feature from here on, especially as his appeal lies with both male and female listeners. In an interview with USA Today, Bryan's manager Kerri Edwards said the first time she saw him: "I saw guys fist-pumping and high-fiving and singing every word as much as the girls did. That truly got my attention. I remember saying to myself, this guy reminds me of Kenny Chesney. That's what I felt in that room that time. That's still happening."

Luke Bryan Smashes American Country Awards With Nine Accolades

Luke Bryan scooped a whopping nine awards at the American Country Awards on Monday (December 10th 2012) missing out on only two other possible titles.

The artist won nine out of 24 awards which, considering fifteen of those were reserved for females, groups, collaborations and new artists, isn't bad at all as he only lost out on two other possible accolades for 'Touring Artist of the Year' which went to Jason Aldean and Song of the Year which went to Eric Church and his song 'Springsteen' featuring Jeff Hyde and Ryan Tyndell. Luke's awards included Artist of the Year (general and male category), Album of the Year for his Tailgates & Tanlines, Single of the Year (both general and male) for 'I Don't Want This Night To End' - a song which also earned him Music Video of the Year (general and male, again) and Most Played Radio Track (once more, for the general and male categories).

Miranda Lambert was the highest female earner of ACA accolades, winning three for her song 'Over You': Single of the Year (Female), Music Video of the Year (Female) and Most Played Radio Track (Female). Lady Antebellum won the most awards for a group including Artist of the Year (Group) and Single of the Year (Group) for their song 'We Owned The Night'.

Taylor Swift To Co-Host The Grammy Nominations


Taylor Swift LL Cool J Maroon 5 Luke Bryan

Taylor Swift can put no foot wrong it seems, as her album sells outrageously quickly, and now she has been picked to host the Grammy nominations, from her home town, Nashville, which is also the hometown of country music. 

She will join LL Cool J in the announcements, as well as Maroon 5 and Luke Bryan who will both be performing at the show, and plenty of more performers will be announced a later date. Swift and LL Cool J will release the nominations in the main categories on December 5th, ahead of the main show that will be aired in February 2013. Swift's participation helps mark the Grammys' own celebration of her predominant genre of country music, according to Reuters. 

Taylor Swift is already the recipient of 6 Grammys, a number which may be increased next year. She's currently on a massive promotional tour in aid of her latest album 'Red'. As part of her promotions, the Mirror reports that she has been getting closer and closer to Ed Sheeran who will be touring with her in next year's mammoth 58 day tour of the US. If these rumours are true, that may be the quickest relationship turnaround in history, as she has only just broken up with her most recent boyfriend, 18-year-old Connor Kennedy.

American Country Awards Nominees Spring A Surprise As Luke Bryan Leads The Way


Luke Bryan

Luke Bryan's star looks like it's going to be rising ever further after the country singer topped the list of nominations at the annual American Country Awards. Traditionally a nomination stronghold for the likes of Taylor Swift and Lady Antebellum, those two were put in the shade after nominees were revealed today showing Bryan out in front with a mighty seven chances to win. Indeed, Swift even had to do with being beaten by not only Lady Antebellum, but also the Zac Brown Band, who took six nominations apiece; then came Swift, with five alongside Eric Church. In fairness to the star, these awards were probably a bit too soon for her, given that her new album 'Red' isn't due out until October 22, 2012.
