It's been a massive week for the Gold Coast artist
Gold Coast musician current Groovin The Moo favourite Amy Shark has soared in the ARIA Albums Chart with her Night Thinker EP to claim a #2 debut, sitting just behind unstoppable UK star Ed Sheeran, while Allday’s Speeding cracks the top 10.
The high debut from Shark follows a massive few months, with the singer scoring #2 on triple j’s Hottest 100 with single Adore – which also went to #1 on the Singles Chart - and just this past week claiming two titles at the Gold Coast Music Awards.
