Eric Church Makes Top 10 On MusicRow Top Songwriter Chart With ‘Heart On Fire’

Eric Church demonstrates the power of a solo write this week as his wholly-penned song “Heart On Fire” brings him to No. 6 on the MusicRow Top Songwriter Chart. Because he is the sole writer on “Heart On Fire,” all of the points earned from the song’s airplay, digital download track sales, and streams go entirely to Church.

Ashley Gorley remains at No. 1 this week with eight currently charting songs supporting him. The recent ASCAP Song of the Year winner is a co-writer on “New Truck” (Dylan Scott), “You Should Probably Leave” (Chris Stapleton), “Sand In My Boots” (Morgan Wallen), “Give Heaven Some Hell” (Hardy), “Beers On Me” (Dierks Bentley, Hardy & Breland), “Steal My Love” (Dan + Shay), “Take My Name” (Parmalee), and “What He Didn’t Do” (Carly Pearce).

Jesse Frasure remains at No. 2 this week, and Michael Hardy at No. 3.

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