Lefty's 'Boston' Hits 2 Weeks at Country Airplay No. 1
25 Sep
Summary
- Stella Lefty's 'Boston' is No. 1 on Country Airplay for second week.
- She's the first solo woman with a debut single multiple weeks atop the chart since 2004.
- Kenny Chesney sets new record with his 101st Country Airplay chart entry.
Stella Lefty's debut single "Boston" continues its impressive run, maintaining the No. 1 position on Billboard's Country Airplay chart for a second week. This milestone is particularly significant as Lefty is the first solo-billed female artist to achieve multiple weeks at the top with a debut single since Gretchen Wilson's "Redneck Woman" in 2004.
Lefty's success places her among an elite group of solo women whose first Country Airplay entry has topped the chart for more than one week. Her song's two-week reign is tied with Deana Carter's "Strawberry Wine" and Trisha Yearwood's "She's in Love With the Boy." This year has also seen other notable achievements, with Ella Langley, Lainey Wilson, Gabby Barrett, and Maren Morris also securing multi-week No. 1s on the Country Airplay chart.
In other chart news, Luke Bryan and Luke Combs' collaboration "Finders Keepers" makes its debut at No. 26. Additionally, Kenny Chesney's "Remember Me That Way" enters at No. 28, marking his 101st career appearance on the Country Airplay chart and setting a new record for most entries.
As of the chart dated October 3rd, all updates are scheduled for Tuesday, September 29th, on Billboard.com. Lefty's chart performance highlights a resurgence of solo female artists making a significant impact on country radio.
