LGBTQ Music Chart – Week 01 – 2026

Your weekly dose of queer brilliance is here — louder, prouder and more electrifying than ever. This week’s chart is a community-curated celebration of LGBTQ artistry from around the world: a sonic rainbow of empowerment, love and fierce creativity that ranges from tender ballads to full-throttle pop anthems. The Top 50 Countdown is live and it’s the soundtrack your weekend needs.

Number One this week

Greczula — «Love»

Greczula storms to this week’s No.1 with the irresistible smash «Love», fresh off the surprise drop of his revamped «Greczula Deluxe» — now packed with three brand‑new tracks. The rising pop powerhouse is already fuelling rumours of a Melodifestivalen 2026 comeback, after dazzling viewers with a high‑energy New Year’s Eve performance on SVT, Sweden’s answer to the BBC. A chart‑topping anthem, a deluxe release and a primetime TV moment — Greczula is kicking off the year in full superstar mode.

This Week’s Spotlight

Garek — «Spinster»

This week’s Spotlight is Garek’s fierce new single «Spinster». The Wisconsin‑born singer ditched small‑town life for New York City back in 2010, chasing pop glory and hustling his way through the industry by cutting demos for Disney and Nickelodeon while interning at a top production house. Now the globe‑trotting rock‑pop renegade is back with a fresh release — and «Spinster» is already causing a stir, cementing Garek as one of the most intriguing voices in the alt‑pop scene.

Song of the Week

Kyle Alessandro — «Model»

Kyle Alessandro bags this week’s «Song of the Week» with the strutting, pulse‑racing club anthem «Model» — a track that somehow blends swagger with pure heart. Co‑written with hitmakers Richello and Kristin Marie Solem, «Model» is crafted to make every listener feel like the star of the night, serving attitude, adrenaline and a touch of glamour in one irresistible package.

Newcomer of the Week

Sander Sanchez — «Star»

Newcomer of the Week goes to Sander Sanchez with his mesmerising new single «Star». A true sonic shapeshifter, Sander has been singing since he could talk, fusing R&B velvet, 80s pop gloss, soul grit, Vapor Twitch shimmer and ambient electronica into a sound that feels both ancient and futuristic. With roots stretching from South Dakota’s Native American powwow traditions to Denmark’s alt‑pop scene, his music carries a spiritual heartbeat — colourful, light‑bending soundscapes that lift and haunt in equal measure. Paired with raw, reflective lyrics and production that swells from whisper to cinematic roar, «Star» proves Sander Sanchez is crafting rituals, not just songs — intimate, otherworldly, and impossible to ignore.
