New Releases

YOUR NEW RELEASES: Luke Bryan could have the largest debut for a Country solo artist not named Taylor Swift since 2007. He could also see the biggest bow by a male Country artist since Tim McGraw opened with 766k in August of 2004—that's pretty durned impressive for a feller who ain't got no hat. Here are this week's key debuts:

Luke Bryan (Capitol Nashville) 450-475k
K. Michelle (Atlantic) 65-70k
Parachute (Island/IDJ) 14-16k

The debuting strains at UMPG's Nashville office, meanwhile, are Yo-da-ley-hee-hoo Kush, Mary Sue Mary Jane and Tennessee Ernie Fucked-Up. (8/14p)
