Forget Sabrina Carpenter's summer. The US pop star is also heating up the Australian chart during the southern winter.
Carpenter scores her second leader in less than two months as “Please Please Please” (Island/Universal) climbs 4-1 on the ARIA Singles Chart for its first top spot.
Her first lead single, the platinum-certified “Espresso,” sits at No. 2 on the Australian chart, published Friday, June 21, giving Carpenter a rare 1-2. “Espresso” topped the national rankings for a week in May.
Rounding out the top 3 on the latest ARIA Chart is Shaboozey's “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” (via Empire), one of three country songs in the top 10, including Post Malone and Morgan Wallen's “I Had Some Help” (unchanged at No. 6 via Universal) and Dasha's “Austin” (up 14-10 via Warner Music).
On the ARIA Albums Chart, Billie Eilish records a fourth week at No.1 with Hit with hard and soft (Interscope/Universal), fronted by former frontman Taylor Swift Department of Tormented Poets (Universal), holding at No. 2.
American country star Luke Combs makes his chart-topping debut with Fathers & Sons (Columbia/Sony), his fifth studio album. It's new at No. 3, extending Combs' streak of top 10s to five — a career tally that includes a record-setting No. 1 in 2019 What you see is what you get. Album track “The Man He Sees in Me” is the top new track on the ARIA Singles Chart, at No.38.
Meanwhile, Fred Again has a second top 10 on the ARIA Albums Chart with USB (Atlantic/Warner), new at No. 4. The English producer and artist made history in Australia earlier this year with a sold-out “pop up” arena tour.
Also, $uicideboy$ debuts at No. 6 with New global depression (Orchard), their fourth studio album. This is a career-best effort for the New Orleans rap duo.
Finally, Nick Cave collaborators Dirty Three bring a debut album to the Top 50 Love changes everything (Remote Control/Inertia), new at No. 12, while homegrown indie band Hockey Dad bows at No. 15 with Rebuild Redo (BMG/ADA), for their third top 20 album.
