Don Broco have scored their first UK Number One album with new LP ‘Amazing Things’.

The Bedford rock band’s new record, which arrived last week (January 28), debuted in the top spot just 1,500 copies ahead of The Weeknd, whose latest album, ‘Dawn FM’, landed at Number Two following its release in physical formats.

“Wow, our first ever Official Charts UK Number One album!” Don Broco said upon receiving news of his achievement. “Thank you so much to our fans for supporting us this week; we honestly couldn’t have done it without you. This one’s for you guys!”

They added: “After so many hiccups along the way with this album release, to finally get it out and get this Official Charts UK Number One album award means so much.”

With 98 per cent of their total coming from physical sales, the band also topped the Official Vinyl Albums Chart and Record Store Chart.

‘Amazing Things’, the band’s fourth studio album, marks Don Broco’s third Top 10 UK album. Their second LP, 2015’s ‘Automatic’ peaked at Number Six, while their third, 2018’s ‘Technology’, landed at Five.
