U.K. MIDWEEKS: AN ECSTATIC START

2/5/24

The Last Dinner Party are heading toward #1 on the U.K’s Official Albums Chart with their debut, Prelude to Ecstasy (Island). Over on singles, Noah Kahan remains on top.

Should it remain at #1, Prelude to Ecstasy will cap off an exciting few months for the British band, who’ve been crowned BRITs Rising Star and BBC Sound of… 2024.

Jamie Webster could gain his highest-charting album in the U.K. yet with 10 For The People (Modern Sky) at #2.

Paul McCartney and Wings’ third set as a band, Band on the Run (Capitol), is looking to re-enter the Top 10 thanks to a special reissue.

Kula Shaker’s Natural Magick (Strange Folk) starts at #5, while singer/songwriter Dylan John Thomas’ self-titled debut album (Ignition) is predicted for a re-entry at #8.

On the U.K.’s Official Singles midweeks, Kahan’s “Stick Season” (Republic) is tracking for #1 for a sixth consecutive week.

TikTok star Benson Boone could claim his first U.K. Top 10 single on Friday with “Beautiful Things” (Night Street/Warner Records), which is up three to #7.

“Alibi” (Major Toms/Asylum) by Ella Henderson and Rudimental is expected to jump 11 to #13. Megan Thee Stallion’s “HISS” (Hot Girl Productions) is predicted to rise 17 slots to #14.

The Last Dinner Party’s “Nothing Matters” is set to fly into the Top 20 at #19.
