It didn't take long for Bailey Zimmerman and Luke Combs’ ‘Backup Plan’ to find its way back on top of the UK Country Radio Airplay Chart, besting Russell Dickerson's 'Happen To Me' after the summer bop broke up their winning streak.

During the frame dated July 4 - July 10, 'Backup Plan' amassed a total of 1.23 million impressions across 116 plays. This marks the all-star duet's third nonconsecutive week at the top of the radio ranking.

The inspirational number is set to appear on Zimmerman's highly anticipated new album, Different Night, Same Rodeo, which arrives on Aug. 8.

According to the frame, Alex Warren and Jelly Roll's recent duet, ‘Bloodline’, is currently sitting pretty at No. 2 on the chart, with the Dickerson hit having fallen into the No. 3 spot. Another Jelly Roll song, 'Heart of Stone', comes in at No. 4, just as Josh Ross' 'Single Again' rounds out the Top 5.

This week saw some big moves from several songs, including Thomas Rhett and Tucker Wetmore's 'Small Town Girls', which leapt from the No. 48 slot into the 22nd, as well as Parker McCollum's 'What Kinda Man', which skyrocketed from last week's position at No. 85 to No. 29.

There are also a handful of new additions to the radio chart's top rankings, with Ella Langley's 'Never Met Anyone Like You' (No. 25) and Diplo and Bailey Zimmerman's 'ASHES', both debuting in the Top 50.
