It should come as no surprise to see King Stingray & Gold Fang share the top spot for the most adds on the best new music playlists in Australia this week – Gold Fang is the #2 most-added artist over the last two years, and King Stingray are #1. That support is clearly not going anywhere.
Most Playlisted This Week
🥇King Stingray, Gold Fang
🥈Forest Claudette
🥉 A. Swayze & The Ghosts
Forest Claudette was only just behind though, and their rapid growth over the last twelve months is ensuring that playlister support remains rock solid – again, few surprises to see them near the top (and especially if you’ve been paying attention to my Making Noise series).
It fell to the excellent A. Swayze & The Ghosts to be the Story Of The Week, and the week’s only real surprise. After a lengthy gap since their last release, they dive back in with a ton of latent goodwill from tastemakers, bagging more spots than a good number of more established acts.

The image above is a screenshot of the top end of the full lists. You can see this week’s lists here – those are updated on Mondays and allow you to scroll down the whole list. That page also details a bit more about how the whole thing works and what the charts mean.
You can also listen to the most playlisted tracks on, er, a playlist that I keep updated here. This has got the latest 50-ish most playlisted tracks from the last month or so on it, and it’s a decent spin through recent tracks that Australian new music playlisters are adding. The playlists that I track are the same as the ones listed in the Playlist Guide.
