   American rock quintet The Scarlet Opera (from Los Angeles, California) earns their first #1 on Tad's LGBT Music Chart this weekend with "Riot", moving up 2 more places from the midweek's #3 position. The band's lead singer (Luka Bazulka) is openly gay. According to SoundCharts, the song reached #1 in Ukraine and hit the Top Ten in three other countries (#5 in Sweden, #7 in Austria, and #8 in South Africa). Over the past half-week, the video for "Riot" has gained an additional 1,800 views on YouTube (which is an increase of 1.22% since the midweek's chart).

American/British musician Jake Shears (originally from San Juan Island, Washington & currently residing in England) climbs 5 notches to #6 with "Too Music Music".

They're joined in the Top Ten by American/Australian singer Johnny Manuel (originally from Flint, Michigan & now living in Sydney), who's rising 7 spots to #9 with "Out of Time".
