Life is sweet for Sabrina Carpenter, as the U.S. pop star lands at No. 1 on Australia’s albums chart and completes a top-three sweep of the national singles tally.
Carpenter’s Short n’ Sweet (via Island/Universal) debuts at the summit of the ARIA Albums Chart, published Friday, Aug. 30, for her first leader in the land Down Under.
Short n’ Sweet is her sixth album, and first to crack the top 10. Previously, her highest-charting LP was Emails I Can’t Send, which peaked at No. 27 in 2022.
With that hot start, Carpenter breaks a four-week unbroken stand at the summit by Australian acts (Lime Cordiale, Tones & I, Amy Shark and Cold Chisel).
Sabrina’s domination doesn’t end there. Her latest single, “Taste,” debuts at No. 1 on the ARIA Chart, ahead of “Please Please Please” and “Espresso,” respectively, for a rare trifecta. All three tracks have now logged time at the chart summit.
According to ARIA, Carpenter is the first artist to swamp the top three since April 2024, when bestie and touring partner Taylor Swift did so. On that occasion, TayTay owned the entire top 10 with tracks from The Tortured Poets Department, an historic feat. Carpenter lands another seven tracks in the top 50, and becomes the first act to secure three ARIA No. 1s in the same calendar year, since Drake did it in 2018.
Coming in at No. 2 on the ARIA Albums Chart is Aussie indie act Teenage Dads’ Majordomo (Chugg/MGM), their second album, while Sydney pop punk outfit Stand Atlantic completes an all-new top three Was Here (Hopeless Records/RKT), new at No. 3. Both are career best chart positions.
Close behind is Irish alternative rock outfit Fontaines D.C. with their fourth album Romance (XL/Inertia), new at No. 6. That’s a serious uplift from the Dubliners’ 2020 effort A Hero’s Death, which peaked at No. 26, and Skinty Fa, which topped out at No. 24 in 2022.
Finally, Travis Scott lassos a top 10 spot with Days Before Rodeo (Epic/Sony), new at No. 9. Celebrating its 10th anniversary, the Houston, TX rapper reissues his 2014 mixtape with additional material, across new formats, including streaming platforms for the first time. The original mixtape didn’t impact the ARIA Chart, though Scott has three ARIA top 10 albums to his name, including No. 1s for Astroworld (from 2018) and Utopia (2023).
