Countrytown Hot 50 Radio Chart Of 2023 Revealed

December 21, 2023 6:58 am in by

2023 will go down as one of the best years for country music in recent history, especially in Australia – country artists from all around the world embarked on sold-out tours of our stadiums and arenas, we had dozens of independent artists make waves with chart-dominating hits, and the festival circuit burned brightly as ever as punters rolled out in droves to support their favourites.

While the year’s top three biggest songs to chart on the Countrytown Hot 50 came from US-based artists – Morgan Wallen at #1 with Last Night, followed by Luke Combs at #2 with Fast Car, then Tyler Hubbard at #3 with Dancin’ In The CountryJames Johnston swung through to represent the local scene with his track Got It Good taking out the #4 spot.

The Wolfe Brothers and Morgan Evans also slid into the Top Ten, respectively taking out #7 (with Livin’ The Dream) and #9 (Hey Little Mama). Further down the list, Johnston returned at #14 with the ultra-catchy single We Grew Up On, while The Wolfe Brothers had two more entries – Runnin’ The Country (their joint effort with Travis Collins) at #13 and Love Like That (another collab, this time with The Shires) at #26 – and Evans popped back up at #21 with Over For You.
