ACM WINNERS STORM iTUNES CHARTS

ACM Awards winners were not only rewarded with trophies Sunday night. By the following morning, seven country tracks were in the Top 15 at iTunes and Miranda Lambert's Vanner/RCA Nashville album The Weight of These Wings was #1.

Lambert, who took home Album of the Year and Female Vocalist prizes, rose from #29 prior to the telecast. Her single "Tin Man" has also hit #1.

Keith Urban, who performed "The Fighter" with Carrie Underwood, has seen that track rise to #3, his Ripcord (Capitol Nashville) rise to #5 from #13 and his “Blue Ain't Your Color” sparkle at #12.

Sam Hunt's “Body Like a Back Road,” which he performed with grace and swagger toward the start of the show, sits at #4. Also in the Top 15: Lady Antebellum’s “You Look Good” (#7), Tim McGraw & Faith Hill’s “Speak to a Girl” (#8) and Thomas Rhett f/Maren Morris’ “Craving You” (#9).

Debut albums from New Female Vocalist winner Maren Morris and two-category winner Brothers Osborne moved into the Top 15 as did co-host Luke Bryan’s Kill the Lights (Capitol Nashville) and Traveler (Mercury Nashville) by Chris Stapleton, who performed a song from his next album. Bargain pricing on an array of big country titles was timed with the ACMs.

Besides winning two awards, Florida Georgia Line’s performance of their new single with The Backstreet Boys “God, Your Mama and Me” (BMLG), has pushed it up to #13 from #46. The Top 10 on iTunes’ country singles chart was all artists associated with the awards show.
