Zac Brown Band’s fifth studio album, Welcome Home, found a home atop Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart this week. The new offering is ZBB’s fourth consecutive album (You Get What You Give, Uncaged, Jekyll + Hyde) to hit No. 1 on the chart.

According to Nielsen Music, Welcome Home sold 139,000 copies in pure album sales and 146,000 units in equivalent album sales (which takes into account how many times an album’s individual songs are streamed or sold as downloads).

Welcome Home also debuted at No. 2 on the all-genre Billboard 200 behind Harry Styles’ self-titled debut, which sold 193,000 pure albums and 230,000 equivalent units.

Following Chris Stapleton’s From A Room, Welcome Home is the second consecutive country album to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart and No. 2 on the Billboard 200 chart.
