Episode 144: Bluegrass Today Weekly Top 20 Countdown - 9/Nov/2025

Broadcast from Sydney, Australia

This week’s countdown features a new Number 1, seven debuts, and eight returning favourites—plus a good-natured bit of chart confusion over two songs called “Working Man Blues.”

You’ll hear brand-new music from:

• Trey Hensley – “Can’t Outrun the Blues” (our highest debut)
  
  
• Jim Hurst – “I’m Leavin’”
  
  
• East Nash Grass – “Bend in the Road”
  
  
• Unspoken Tradition – “Refugee”
  …and many more.
  
  

Our oldest returning favourite this week is “Della Jane’s Heart” from Appalachian Road Show, making its 19th appearance on the chart.

The Gospel Spotlight features the top four songs from the Bluegrass Today Gospel Chart:

1. Nick Chandler & Delivered – “Follow the Leader”
   
   
2. Danny Paisley – “Two Old Church Pews”
   
   
3. David Parmley – “No Empty Chairs in Heaven”
