Nate Nash Debuts at No. 1

[/size]
"Words I Couldn't Say" is the Top Debut of 2011[/i][/center]

Nate Nash entered the record books on the Billboard 200 chart dated August 6, 2011. His debut effort "Words I Couldn't Say" scored the top debut of 2011 and of all time with 538,000 copies sold in its first week of availability. Nash has already had a good summer thanks to his No. 1 Hot 100 smash hit "If You Were My Girl" and new single "Out of This World" on which pop superstar Anna Thomas lends her vocals.

Jake Sutherland previously held the record for biggest debut when the release of his debut album generated 517,000 copies sold on the chart dated February 26, 2011.

Nashville Records also had a strong week as their compilation extended play "Nashville Originals", where all their artists contributed a brand new song to the release, debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. The EP sold 151,000 copies in its first frame, enough to almost guarantee a follow-up release at some point in the future.

Lil Fry's "Lil Fry, Big Life" was the sole remaining release this week. The alternative rapper sold 15,000 copies, debuting at No. 50 with his debut effort.

Total sales for the week were at 2.3 million, up 34% from last week when 1.7 million albums were sold.
