UK Country Airplay
Airplay chart / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The UK Country Airplay chart is a weekly music chart based on the radio airplay of country music singles on radio stations in the United Kingdom. It serves as the UK equivalent to the American Billboard Country Airplay chart.
Announced on 8 March 2024, the debut chart was revealed a few days later on 10 March to coincide with the final day of the 2024 C2C: Country to Country music festival, with the official top 20 being posted each week on the UK-based country publication Holler. The chart, which is the first genre-specific radio chart in the UK, aims to serve as a key measure of which songs are being enjoyed most frequently by listeners across the country and is produced in collaboration with music company Radiomonitor, and the UK branch of the Country Music Association.[1]
The first number-one song on the UK Country Airplay chart was "Creek Will Rise" by Conner Smith.[2] The current number one single is "Pour Me a Drink" by Post Malone featuring Blake Shelton.
