MusicRow Top Songwriter Chart

Songwriter Josh Osborne moves back to No. 1 on the MusicRow Top Songwriter Chart this week after diverting to No. 2 last week, ending an impressive 13-week consecutive run in the top spot.

SMACKSongs’ GRAMMY Award winner and multi-Platinum songwriter Osborne has five active songs pushing him to the coveted top position; “Born To Love You,” “Burn Out,” “Hotel Key,” “One That Got Away,” “Turnin’ Me On.”

MusicRow’s weekly ranking of the top 60 country songwriters shows momentum across the board this week with 42 of the 60 spots moving higher over last week.

Eric Church, as the sole writer on his new song, “Heart Like A Wheel,” propelled a move up 6 spots to No. 5 this week while Ray Wylie Hubbard, who co-wrote the title track on Church’s Desperate Man album, moves into the top ten at No. 9.

The weekly MusicRow Top Songwriter Chart, published every Monday, uses algorithms based upon song activity according to airplay, digital downloaded track sales and streams. This unique and exclusive new addition to the MusicRow portfolio is the only songwriter chart of its kind.
