American Heartbreak

- —KEITH CAULFIELD

Singer-songwriter Zach Bryan makes his Billboard 200 debut with his first majorlabel album, American Heartbreak, arriving at No. 5. The 34-track project enters with

71,500 equivalent album units earned in the United States during the week ending May 26, according to Luminate — and marks the biggest week for a country or Americana/folk album in 2022. Of Heartbreak’s starting sum, streaminge­quivalent album units make up 64,500 (equaling 84.09 million on-demand official streams of the album’s 34 songs) while album sales and trackequiv­alent album units make up the remaining 7,000. It also debuts at No. 1 on Top Country Albums, Top Rock Albums and Americana/Folk Albums — his first leader on all three charts.

Bryan’s breakout song, “Something in the Orange” (from American Heartbreak), surges 75-42 on the all-genre

Billboard Hot 100 and hits the top 10 for the first time on the Hot Country Songs chart (12-3).
