COUNTRY SONG STREAMS: BETTER WITH BOURBON

Though Sam Hunt retains his perch at #1, Randy Goodman's Sony Nashville has three of the Top Five tracks on this week's Country Song Streams Chart, with Kane Brown's "What Ifs" (RCA Nashville/Zone 4) at #2 and Luke Combs scoring twice with #4 "Hurricane" and #5 "When it Rains It Pours" (River House/Columbia Nashville). Meanwhile, RCA Nashville's Old Dominion moves up to #7 with "No Such Thing as a Broken Heart" and scores the top debut with "Written in the Sand" (#18).

Overall, marketshare breaks down thusly: UMG 65%, Sony 31% and WMG 5%. Check the whole thing here.
