SPIN ZONE

KWNR/Las Vegas’ Ransom (R) and Jojo (L) recently visited with Chris Janson before he hit the stage for Country at the Park at Mountain’s Edge.

As the temps begin to rise and summer finally arrives, Brad Paisley‘s current single ushers in warmer temps as summer finally arrives. “Beat This Summer” ranks atop the MusicRow Country Breakout chart. Last week’s No. 1 song, Tim McGraw featuring Taylor Swift‘s “Highway Don’t Care,” is at No. 2 this week, followed by The Band Perry‘s “Done” at No. 3, Blake Shelton‘s “Boys Round Here” at No. 4 and Jake Owen‘s “Anywhere With You” at No. 5. Luke Bryan‘s “Crash My Party” continues its swift climb to land at No. 6 after six weeks on the chart. The Henningsens‘ “American Beautiful” holds steady at No. 7 again this week, while Zac Brown Band‘s “Jump Right In” ups a notch to No. 8. Kip Moore‘s “Hey Pretty Girl” rises from No. 10 to No. 9, while Carrie Underwood‘s “See You Again” gains two slots to round out the Top 10.

Keith Urban returns to the chart with a new single, “Little Bit of Everything,” from his upcoming album. The song gained the most spins this week (643) to land at No. 42. Lady Antebellum‘s “Goodbye Town” is storming up the chart, jumping from No. 47 to No. 28 this week, with 520 added spins. Luke Bryan‘s “Crash My Party” gained 303 spins enough to put it in the No. 6 slot on the chart. Carrie Underwood‘s “See You Again” adds 288 spins this week, breaking into the Top 10. Chris Young‘s “Aw Naw” accumulated 270 added spins, enough to rise from No. 48 to No. 37.

Keith Urban‘s “Little Bit of Everything” is also the highest debut this week, breaking onto the chart at No. 42, followed by Branch & Dean‘s “The Dash” at No. 66, Mark Chesnutt‘s “When The Lights Go Out” at No. 75, Chuck Wicks‘ “Salt Life” at No. 77 and Tyler Barham‘s “17 & Young” at No. 80.
