In this week’s Country Buzz Top 10 (see below), we’ve rounded up all the hottest trends as usual—from Megan Moroney holding down the #1 spot, to Ryan Bingham (of Yellowstone fame) starting his climb at number 10.Having Ryan on the list is always a blast because he’s a personal favorite of mine (hint, hint!). That said, we can be pretty sure he’ll have a tough time climbing much higher. Our rankings take all the online buzz, throw it into one big bowl, and mix it up to see who’s creating the most TOTAL noise right now.

When I started to put together the weekly COUNTRY BUZZ TOP 10 listings (see below), I could not imagine the impact that the ten artists on the list have on EVERY OTHER single move in the country music industry. If you follow the moves in the industry, you need to know who is on this list (and why!) to fully understand the wonderful world of country music.

Stay ahead of the crowd. I have created what I think is the best list to track what’s “buzzing” in the global country community: the Country Buzz Top 10.
