Ashley Cooke has achieved her first-ever No. 1 with her breakup anthem “Your Place.”
Penned by Cooke, Jordan Minton and Mark Trussell, the song is the first single from a breakout Big Loud female artist to claim the top spot and only the second to reach No.1 from a female artist at country radio in 2024. Cooke is also currently the highest-charted solo female on the Billboard Country Airplay chart in 2024, reaching No. 2 this week.
“It is truly an honor to join the legacy of country radio No. 1s,” she shares. “Reaching the top of the chart has been a goal of mine since the first time I picked up a microphone, and getting to ring the bell with the greatest team at Big Loud and the radio champions I now call friends is all the more rewarding.”
After first impacting radio on Dec. 11, the trajectory of “Your Place” took a short 26 weeks from debut to peak, tying as the second-fastest growing solo female debut single on Country Aircheck/MediaBase chart in the last 10 years. The song also earned Cooke a four-week No. 1 on the U.K. Country Radio Airplay chart, making her the first artist to do so since the chart launched earlier this year. Additionally, “Your Place” has already secured the top spot on SiriusXM’s The Highway Hot 30 Countdown and has amassed over 62 million global on-demand streams.
This career milestone comes just days after Cooke’s feature on Brantley Gilbert‘s “Over When We’re Sober” hit the country radio airwaves. The duet impacted yesterday (June 24) at No. 31 and No. 41 on the Billboard Country Airplay and Country Aircheck/MediaBase charts, respectively, making it the most-added single of the week. She plans to continue sharing her music on the U.S. leg of Jordan Davis‘ “Damn Good Time Tour” throughout the summer, with a headlining tour to be announced soon.
