It’s Friday the 13^th, oh happy day! And there are more reasons to be cheerful. For many people the holiday season has started, for instance. Nevertheless, the European Border Breakers Chart will continue to be updated every Friday around noon. In fact, we just did.

Because of the holiday season, many well-known artists refrain from releasing new material. With a little luck, radio stations and streaming services will put more emerging artists in their playlists. And upcoming artists, that’s what the EBBChart is about. European artists, to be precise.

This week’s Top 100 counts 30 (re)entries. Eight of these songs enjoy their very first week in the chart. Here they are:

#25: Tom Grennan – I Might
#32: Yungblud (pictured) – Medication
#61: KMN Gang – KMN Member
#65: Sigrid – Schedules
#78: Lucie Horsch – Flautino Concerto in C Major, RV 443
#92: Bausa – FML
#95: Sabrina & Samantha – Khéops
#97: Savas & Sido feat. Lakman – Neue Welt

For the full Top 100, click the ‘EBBChart’ tab in the top menu of this blog (loading of the PDF may take a little while). More charts, like the Tips (ranking the tracks that are on their way to the Top 100), the Airplay Chart and the Streaming Chart, are available at www.europeanborderbreakerschart.eu, where you can also listen to all of the tracks and watch their videos, as well as share them via social media.
