iTunes Top 10s With a Country Twist

Mumford & Sons hold the top two spots on the iTunes album leaderboard as they barrel toward a chart-topping bow. Meanwhile, in honor of Music Biz 2015, we mark some Nashville-bred releases dominating the chart, including album-chart champs Zac Brown Band, the indefatigable Taylor Swift and breakout Sam Hunt. At #4, meanwhile, is Mercury Nashville's Chris Stapleton, former frontman of The SteelDrivers.

On the singles side, S-Curve/Hollywood's Andy Grammer is on fire with "Honey, I'm Good," while Capitol Nashville's Little Big Town continues to crush it with "Girl Crush" (it's the #1 song on the iTunes Country rundown).

Outside the Top 10, we note Columbia's Rachel Platten coming on strong with "Fight Song" (#19) and Silento's raw "Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae)" (Capitol) riding a viral wave at #31.
