Hunter Hayes once again finds his name on our Top Country Albums chart rundown with his Platinum-certifed self-titled debut. The Lacs continue to sit on our rundown with the 31k-selling Keep It Redneck. That’s a strong number for an indie band without mainstream radio exposure. Meanwhile, Carrie Underwood’s Blown Away comtinues to move well past the 1.53 million sold mark. Tim McGraw’s first Big Machine Records album, Two Lanes Of Freedom has now scanned 421k copies and is certain to hit Gold sometime soon, maybe this Holiday season.
