As you should know by now, Australia is producing a lot of great music lately. At this year’s ARIA (Australian Record Industry Association) Awards, the country’s success was evident. Whereas American and English musicians frequently take the top spots in Australia, this year saw 13 Australian albums go to No. 1, making it the most successful year for Australian artists in ARIA charts history.
