Description

This week’s Countdown celebrates a mix of long-running chart favourites and powerful new arrivals — with fresh stories, gospel inspiration, and even a trip to the South Pole.

🏆 Highlights



  • Alison Krauss & Union Station return after a 14-year break with “Richmond on the James.”




  • Jason Carter & Michael Cleveland dominate again — three songs in the Top 20, including the IBMA-decorated “Outrun the Rain.”




  • Shelby Means, Ashby Frank, and Volume Five all climb steadily.



  • Emotional debut for Bobby Osborne & C.J. Lewandowski with “Blue Heartache,” recorded as a tribute after Bobby’s passing.




  • Will Clark launches his solo career with “A Different Kind of Lonesome.”




  • Kevin Denney holds the #1 spot with “Gulf Shore Line,” featuring Andy Leftwich, Rob Ickes, Darrin Vincent & Jaelee Roberts.



  • Four-way tie on the Gospel Chart led by Eighteen Mile, High Road, Joe Mullins & The Radio Ramblers, and Kristy Cox, with Jerry Salley & The Oak Ridge Boys just behind — the Oaks’ final studio recording by their original lineup.
     

  • Runtime 104 minutes (68 minutes of music + features, stories & Countdown commentary).
