‘Bluey: Rug Island’ Soundtrack Debuts at No. 1 on Kid Albums Chart

Bluey: Rug Island bows atop Billboard’s Kid Albums chart (dated Nov. 9), powered by vinyl sales of the set. The soundtrack was released Oct. 25 and is the companion to the hit animated series Bluey. The project includes music from all three seasons of the show, which premiered in 2018. In the United States, Bluey airs through Disney’s television and streaming services.

Bluey: Rug Island takes its name from the 10th episode of the second season of Bluey. The music on the album was created largely composed by Joff Bush, who also produced the set.

Kid Albums ranks the week’s top-selling kid albums in the U.S. according to Luminate. The latest chart reflects the tracking week ending Oct. 31.

Nearly 60% of Bluey: Rug Island’s 3,000 first-week sales came from vinyl purchases, with the set made available on wax in a sunset orange-colored edition or as a picture disc. It was also available to buy as a CD and as a digital download.

Elsewhere on the Kid Albums chart, Vince Guaraldi has three of the top five titles, as a trio of his chart-topping TV soundtracks dot the region: A Charlie Brown Christmas (falling 1-2), It’s The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown (holding at No. 3) and A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving (2-5). Meanwhile, Disney’s former No. 1, the rock compilation A Whole New Sound, is steady at No. 4.

With the Nov. 9 chart reflecting the week ending on Halloween (Oct. 31), two more spooky-sounding titles rank in the top 10 in addition to The Great Pumpkin, and both are from Kidz Bop Kids. The 2022 Kidz Bop Halloween album re-enters at No. 7 (a new peak) while Halloween Party! slips 9-10.
