Lauren Alaina's Debut Album "Wildflower" Lands at No 2 on Billboard Top Country Chart & No 5 on Billboard Top 200

Lauren Alaina's debut album, Wildflower, is the best-selling female country debut since 2006 and is the highest country album debut this week, debuting at No. 2 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart and an impressive No. 5 on the Billboard Top 200. With first-week sales of 69,013; Lauren is the youngest female artist to debut this high on the Billboard charts since LeAnn Rimes' debut 15 years ago. Wildflower also becomes the best-selling digital album by a debut country female, selling 19,659 digital albums.

"I am just so thankful that I have been given the opportunity to share my music with the world,” said Lauren Alaina. “To see my name on the charts alongside country greats that I have admired and looked up to my whole life is absolutely mind-blowing!"

According to Billboard, this is the first time since 2008 where both the winner (Scotty McCreery) and second-place finisher (Lauren Alaina) of American Idol posted Top Five-charting albums (or Top 10, for that matter).

Lauren will perform her rocking new single “Georgia Peaches” on The Ellen DeGeneres Show today, Oct 21st, and has upcoming features scheduled on CNN, E! News and Entertainment Tonight’s The Insider. She was featured on a half-hour GAC special Introducing: Lauren Alaina that debuted Oct 10.

I had a chance to review this album, Wildflower, and it is amazing! Her vocal stylings are fabulous and I can hardly believe she is just a teenager. She sounds like a seasoned pro. It isn't very many albums that I have listened to through the years and said, "hey - these are all single hits". Wildflower is comprised of chart-topping hits in my book and I am sure that many of them will be released into singles. I was singing along with 2 already and you will be too. With the holiday season creeping upon us, pick up this album - it will be a GREAT gift if you can wait that long...I couldn't! My teen (15) and I were already jamming. And of course, my mom loves it to - really music for all ages and country music fans. What a superstar she is, I can't wait to see more from Lauren Alaina!
