    Zach Bryan has a huge week on Billboard ’s charts (dated July 20), thanks to the arrival of his new album, The Great American Bar Scene.

    Released July 4 on Belting Bronco/Warner Records, the set debuted at No. 17 on the Billboard 200 chart (dated July 13) after just one day of activity. Following its first full week, it jumps to No. 2 with 137,000 equivalent album units earned, according to Luminate. Nearly all of that sum is from streaming, as the album is slated to be released on CD and vinyl on Oct. 11.

    The album earns Bryan his fourth top 10 on the Billboard 200, after American Heartbreak (No. 5 peak in June 2022); Zach Bryan (No. 1, September 2023); and his EP Boys of Faith (No. 8, October 2023).

    On the Billboard Hot 100 , Bryan charts 17 songs from The Great American Bar Scene . Here’s a look at all 18 of Bryan’s entries on the latest list (with all but one from the new set; all are debuts except where noted).

    Rank, Title:

    • No. 12, “Pink Skies” (up from No. 13; peaked at No. 6 in June)
    • No. 14, “28”
    • No. 21, “American Nights”
    • No. 22, “I Remember Everything,” feat. Kacey Musgraves (down from No. 19; peaked at No. 1 in September)
    • No. 46, “Better Days,” feat. John Mayer
    • No. 48, “Oak Island”
    • No. 57, “The Way Back”
    • No. 58, “The Great American Bar Scene”
    • No. 61, “Bass Boat”
    • No. 69, “Purple Gas,” with Noeline Hofmann (re-entry; new high)
    • No. 71, “Sandpaper,” feat. Bruce Springsteen
    • No. 73, “Mechanical Bull”
    • No. 74, “Boons”
    • No. 83, “Memphis, The Blues,” feat. John Moreland
    • No. 91, “Like Ida”
    • No. 93, “Northern Thunder”
    • No. 94, “Towers”
    • No. 99, “Funny Man”

    (Only two songs from Bryan’s new album aren’t on this week’s chart: “Lucky Enough [Poem]” and “Bathwater.”)

    Of Bryan’s 18 entries on the Hot 100, 15 are debuts, upping his career total to 42 career titles. Of those, 19 have reached the top 40 and three have hit the top 10.

    Thanks to his featured appearance on the new LP, John Mayer returns to the Hot 100 for the first time since “Outta My Head” with Khalid reached No. 58 in April 2019. He logs his highest rank since “Shadow Days” reached No. 42 in 2012.

    Plus, Bruce Springsteen earns his 27th career Hot 100 hit, and first since “Working on a Dream” (No. 95 peak, February 2009). He earns his highest placement on the chart since “The Rising” reached No. 52 in 2002.

    Meanwhile, John Moreland achieves his first career Hot 100 entry thanks to his featured appearance on “Memphis, The Blues.” The singer-songwriter, from Tulsa, Okla., has been releasing music for nearly two decades, including 10 studio albums. He has charted three collections on the Americana/Folk Albums chart: High on Tulsa Heat (No. 14 peak in 2016); Big Bad Luv (No. 18, 2017); and LP5 (No. 17, 2020).
