18-Year-Old Aussie Artist Bursts Into Top Ten Of US Dance Chart

Sydney singer Emily Perry continues to make an impact in the US, as her hit track Boom has again climbed up the dance charts. 

The 18-year-old artist's August-released song now sits at #9 on the Dance Club Songs chart, after placing at #13 and #19 in the last two weeks.

Speaking to The Music this week, before Boom had even cracked the top ten, Perry said reaching top spot on the chart would be a "dream".

"Well, I've definitely thought about it, I mean number one is the dream but even top ten is an incredible gift in itself," Perry said.

"I'm really not expecting anything other than the hope that people vibe out to it and take something away from my music."

Perry is currently living between Sydney and LA where she is working on a debut album.
