By FYI Staff

Post Malone’s Hollywood’s Bleeding remains at number one on the Billboard Canadian Albums chart for the second week, with 22,000 total consumption units, generating the highest audio-on-demand stream and digital song totals for the week. The album currently sits at No. 2 on the Year-to-date consumption chart, behind Billie Eilish’s When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go.


The highest debut of the week and lone new entry in the top ten belongs to the Lumineers’ III at 2, scoring the highest album sales total of the week. All three of their albums have peaked in the top two and it is the group’s first charted albums since Cleopatra entered at No. 1 in April 2016.

Other new entries in the top 50 include Korn’s The Nothing at No. 11, Glorious Sons’ A War On Everything at No. 13, the band’s highest-charting album to date, the Top Boy soundtrack at No. 23 and Charli XCX’s Charli at No. 50.

Following last week’s passing of singer/guitarist/songwriter Ric Ocasek, The Cars’ Complete Greatest Hits debuts at No. 55.

Lewis Capaldi’s first charted song, Someone You Loved, jumps 2-1 on the Digital Songs chart, with a 19% download increase. It took the song 27 weeks to reach the summit.

Stephane Lecuyer Appointed Chief Operating Officer of The MRG Group and Managing Director of MRG Live

One of Canada's biggest independent music promoters has added to its leadership as it continues to expand.

Stephane Lecuyer is stepping into a new role as chief operating officer (COO) of The MRG Group and managing director of MRG Live.

One of Canada's biggest independent live music companies, the MRG Group and MRG Live have taken over operations for multiple Canadian events and venues in recent months. Back in August, the former acquired for Kelowna, B.C. Venue, Revelry, and the latter obtained a free, two-day Burlington, Ontario waterfront music festival, formerly known as Sound of Music Festival, in October. As both organizations’ portfolios continue to grow, Lecuyer is coming on in a dual leadership role.
