Luke Bryan debuted his last-ever Spring Break album, Spring Break…Checkin’ Out, at No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Albums chart.
With sales at nearly 89,000, the album was his second consecutive Spring Break album to debut at No. 1. The album also hit No. 3 on Billboard’s Top 200 list.
As part of Bryan’s double-pronged historic feat on Top Country Albums (which originated more than 51 years ago, in the Billboard issue dated Jan. 11, 1964), he scores his fifth No. 1. He previously led with the EP Spring Break 6… Like We Ain’t Ever (March 29, 2014); Crash My Party (for 13 weeks, beginning Aug. 31, 2013); Spring Break… Here to Party (two weeks, March 2013); and Tailgates & Tanlines (four weeks, 2011).
Luke Bryan celebrated the release of his last Spring Break album with two concerts at Spinnaker Beach Club in Panama City Beach, Fla. Record crowds of over 400,000 fans turned out for the free shows. Combined sales from Bryan’s seven Spring Break releases now exceed 1.2 million.
Not too shabby Mr. Bryan!
