Chart Beat

Three Days Grace and The Beaches Top the Billboard Canadian Rock Airplay Charts

Three Days Grace's “Apologies” climbs to No. 1 on Mainstream Rock, while The Beaches hold down the top spot with “Last Girls At The Party” on Modern Rock.

Canadian rock bands are dominating the radio airwaves in their home country.

Ontario natives Three Day Grace hit No.1 on the Canadian Mainstream Rock airplay chart with “Apologies,” dated July 19. It earns the top spot on the U.S. Mainstream Rock airplay chart, too, marking the band’s 19th No. 1 song across the border, which puts them just one behind Shinedown for the most of all time.
