Precocious West Australian outfit San Cisco have emerged as the week's highest new entrants on the Carlton Dry Independent Music Charts, with new single Too Much Time Together stepping out comfortably inside the top 20, at #13, on debut.

The stalwart indie-poppers' new cut comes in just a couple of rungs ahead of Cody Simpson and his single Flower, which manages a still-solid #16, one place ahead of Safia's 12-week-strong You Are The One, the clip for which gave the Canberran outfit a bit of grief this week. The top five singles for the week — Sia's Elastic HeartChet Faker's Talk Is Cheap, Sia's ChandelierHayden JamesSomething About You and Sheppard's Geronimo, respectively — all remain unmoved from last week, though previous top-10 closer Through The Roof, by Hermitude (featuring Young Tapz), makes a nice leap up to fall just outside, at #6.

In the albums stakes, Feed Her To The Sharks come close to tying San Cisco for highest-placed debut but fall just short, with Fortitude settling nicely at #14, ahead of fellow new faces Sober & Godless, by The Rumjacks (#16) and Perry KeyesSunnyholt, which nabbed #19. The top five story also remains the same on the full-length ladder: Sia (1000 Forms Of Fear), Flight Facilities (Down To Earth), Chet Faker (iTunes Session and Thinking In Textures) and Sticky Fingers (Land Of Pleasure) all keep their respective places from last week.

If you're a radio fan, keep your ears open for up-and-coming singer-songwriter Gordi and her new cut Nothing's As It Seems, as well as Adelaide punks Grenadiers with Summer, both of whom step out on the radio play charts at #13 and #15 respectively.
