Dry The River‘s debut album ‘Shallow Bed’ failed to break into the Top 20, but has reached a respectable Number 28.
In the singles chart, Gotye held on to the top spot to for his fourth, non-consecutive Number 1. The Aussie singer has now reached half a million sales for his single ‘Somebody That I Used To Know’.
