Sam Hunt is No. 1 on the country tracks and albums charts.
It’s slow in sales land this time of year. In this post-holiday draught, there aren’t any notable new country releases this week, and there are none on the immediate horizon. The album release schedule starts to warm up in March, when new product is expected from Toby Keith, Luke Bryan, Darius Rucker and Josh Turner.
In the meantime, Sam Hunt hunkers down at No. 1 on the country tracks and albums charts. An overall sales uptick is expected from Sunday night’s Grammy Awards. Stay tuned.
