Ashley Gorley Spends Ninth Week At No. 1 On MusicRow Top Songwriter Chart

Ashley Gorley reigns for the tenth consecutive week at the top of the MusicRow Top Songwriter Chart.

Michael Hardy comes in at No. 2 again this week. The MusicRow Award Breakthrough Artist-Writer nominee lives up to the nomination, with five titles supporting him this week, including: Blake Shelton’s “God’s Country,” Chris Lane’s “I Don’t Know About You,” LOCASH’s “One Big Country Song,” Florida Georgia Line’s “Talk You Out Of It,” and his own “Rednecker.”

Ross Copperman remains at No. 3 this week, while “Whiskey Glasses” co-writers Ben Burgess and Kevin Kadish move into the Top Five this week, at No. 4 and No. 5, from the momentum of the Morgan Wallen-recorded hit.

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