mysql php COUNT by same value in column GROUP BY to echo out

Question

I'm trying to figure out a solution to a query.

Question :

I need to find the sum of rows which have the same value in a certain column. From this I then need to echo out certain bits of information along with the total count each value is seen (ie if 'project_id' has two rows with the same value as 11122 then the total count will be 2). I don't know the values I will need as these will be random project numbers in my table.

The column name I need to count by is 'project_id'.

I can't figure out how to echo in the following way:

Project ID = 11122 Total Reviews = 2

Project ID = 99999 Total Reviews = 5

Thanks!

As mentioned above in the comments, Sean's answer works a treat!

SELECT project_id, COUNT(*) as TotalReviews FROM YourTable GROUP BY project_id
