Gabby Barrett and Chris Stapleton get to share a number one week on the charts for country radio airplay this week.

Gabby’s second career single “The Good Ones” jumps from number four to #1 on this week’s Billboard Country Airplay singles chart according to the advanced release of that chart.

This marks two consecutive number one singles out of two released for the already announced ACM New Female Artist of the Year. Her debut single “I Hope” hit the top of the charts last year. That song is nominated for ACM Single of the Year at the upcoming 56th ACM Awards Show. Both songs are available on her debut album Goldmine available everywhere now.

Chris Stapleton’s latest single “Starting Over” makes a huge lead from number seven to #1 on the Mediabase/Country Aircheck singles chart for this week. This marks only the second career number one single for Chris at country radio. However, the song is the title track from fourth career #1 album from the country music singer/songwriter. Both the song and album are among the multiple nominations Chris has for the upcoming 56th ACM Awards Show.

Congratulations to Gabby Barrett and Chris Stapleton on their #1 singles! Listen for both on Bloomington-Normal’s #1 Country, B104.
