The Lottery Winners Top UK Albums Chart with KOKO

The Lottery Winners have achieved their second consecutive Number One album on the Official UK Albums Chart with their latest release, KOKO, which follows their previous album, Anxiety Replacement Therapy. The band, hailing from Leigh in Greater Manchester, expressed their gratitude for the support from fans, emphasizing that the album represents grassroots music and working-class aspirations. KOKO features collaborations with notable artists like Chad Kroeger from Nickelback and was promoted through a week-long pop-up shop at Leigh's Spinners Mill. Mayor of Greater Manchester, Andy Burnham, praised the band for their hard work and dedication, noting the pride their hometown feels for their success. The album's strong sales were largely driven by physical copies, accounting for over 85% of its first-week sales. This release continues the band's upward trajectory since their 2020 debut album.
