ARIA Charts: G Flip drums their way to #1 on the Albums Chart

The tour effect boosts Luke Combs

It’s an Australian success story this week as G Flip scores a massive debut on the ARIA Albums Chart, with Drummer opening at #1.

Drummer is G Flip’s second studio album and a chart peak for the artist after their debut, About Us, peaked at #6 in 2019. 

ARIA CEO, Annabelle Herd, said: “Finally, we can celebrate another Aussie at #1 on the Albums Chart. Congratulations to G Flip and their team on this absolute triumph. As an artist and personality, G Flip has done so much for pushing the narrative of Australian music forward, and truly represents the next wave of homegrown success here and overseas. We couldn’t be happier to celebrate their first ARIA #1.” 

Luke Combs’ albums step back up the chart after commencing his Australian tour on 16 August, with This One’s For You up from #14 to #9 in its 283rd week on the chart. His most recent album, Gettin’ Old, is also up from #17 to #10 and former #1, What You See Ain’t Always What You Get, is up from #21 to #14.

The soundtrack from the new documentary, Ego: The Michael Gudinski Story, debuts at #2. The soundtrack features more than 40 classics, including homegrown anthems Most People I Know (Think That I’m Crazy) by Billy Thorpe and The AztecsHorror Movie and Ego (Is Not A Dirty Word) by SkyhooksCounting The Beat by The SwingersI’d Die To Be With You Tonight by Jimmy BarnesThe Loco-Motion by Kylie MinogueRiptide by Vance Joy (which is at #32 on this week’s ARIA Singles Chart) and Treaty by Yothu Yindi.

On the Singles Chart, Billie Eilish’s What I Was Made For? from the Barbie soundtrack holds at #1 for a third week, becoming her longest-running chart topper and beating out Bad Guy’s two week run at #1 in 2019.
