It’s another chart double for Olivia Dean in Australia, where several artists enjoy a bump from Coachella.
Dean’s The Art Of Loving (via Universal) enters a twelfth non-consecutive week at No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart, ahead of Laufey’s A Matter of Time (AWAL), which flies 43-2 following the release of an extended version, dubbed The Final Hour.
Closing out the podium on the latest frame, published Friday, April 17, is BTS’ former leader ARIRANG (Virgin Music Group/Geffen), down 2-3.

The top new arrival belongs to U.S. country artist Ella Langley, whose Dandelion (Columbia/Sony) flowers at No. 4. That’s a serious improvement on her 2024 album Hungover, which peaked at No. 26 and this week dips 26-30. Langley lands a top 40 hit with album cut “Be Her,” new at No. 33 on the singles tally.
Perth punk band Sly Withers has the top new release by a homegrown act with To Be Honest, new at No. 11. The independently-released To Be Honest is the rockers’ fourth studio album and third to crash the ARIA Chart after Gardens (from 2021) and Overgrown (2022) both reached No. 10.
Making her first appearance on the chart is English singer-songwriter Holly Humberstone, with her sophomore album Cruel World (Universal). It’s new at No. 18.
Sabrina Carpenter and Justin Bieber are both on the bounce after their weekend 1 Coachella headline performances. Carpenter’s Man’s Best Friend improves 13-5 and Short N’ Sweet gains 11-7 (both via Island/Universal), while Bieber’s Swag (Def Jam/Universal) vaults 54-12. The Canadian pop star’s low-key concert in the California desert gave a burst of chart energy to his former No. 1 “Daisies,” up 36-10, while “Yukon” lifts 81-23.
Over on the ARIA Singles Chart, Olivia Dean replaces herself at the top of the leaderboard, again, as her duet with Sam Fender, “Rein Me In” (Dew Process/Universal), climbs 2-1 for a second non-consecutive week in charge. Dean’s “Man In Need” dips 1-2, and “So Easy (To Fall In Love)” holds at No. 6.
Katseye also performed at Coachella and they’re on the way to Australia for a promotional visit. With all that activity, the international girl group is thrust into the ARIA Chart at No. 19 with “Pinky Up” (Interscope/Universal), the top debut of the week. It’s Katseye’s second top 50 appearance after “Gabriela” reached No. 27 earlier this year.
Finally, American singer, songwriter and musician Malcolm Todd bags an ARIA Top 40 with the funky “Earrings” (Columbia/Sony), new at No. 34.
