LA LOM Make Billboard Chart Debut With ‘The Los Angeles League of Musicians’


LA LOM make their Billboard chart debut as 'The Los Angeles League of Musicians' launches at No. 5 on the Tropical Albums chart (dated Aug. 24).

Further LA LOM marks the third top five debut by a group this decade, joining El Gran Combo de Puerto Rico’s En Cuarentena and Buena Vista Social Club’s Ahora Me Da Pena EP, both which achieved a No. Thanks to LA LOM’s U.S. growing footprint, the group, composed of Zac Sokolow (guitar), Jake Faulkner (bass), and Nicholas Baker (drums/percussion), concurrently makes its debut on the Emerging Artists chart, at No.
