Bangkok-based jam blues rock band Billy The Mountain have been told by their Stateside management that they have once again topped one of the most important indie charts in America at www.songplanet.com. Their hit single Mem Will Dance from the April 2008 album Drifting To Valhalla sits at Number One again on the Songplanet Top 100 song chart.

Band manager Tom Gray, speaking from Nashville where the band has just released its latest single Wild Water, said the band – busy in the studio – were ‘ecstatic’ on the news especially since the album was released more than a year ago and was still making major waves in the US market.

“And sales on have been phenomenal with Mem Will Dance leading the way in individual downloads there too. And topping any Songplanet chart is a major achievement and great news for the band, especially ahead of the new album Born On Mars which is being released this year as a series of singles first. The first song, Wild Water – an anti-war song dedicated to the soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan – leads the charge and we have very high hopes for this collection of brilliant songs too,” he said.
