For our own Holly Gleason, Sunday night's ACM Awards on CBS “delivered a great deal of music, a handful of awards and a sense of demi-normal.”
RCA's Keith Rothschild scores his first Mediabase Pop #1 in his post as Co-Head of Promotion with Tate McRae's "you broke me first," which takes the top spot after 28 weeks on the chart. In fact...
UMG’s historic #1 streak is set to end after 19 weeks, broken by Young Thug & Gunna's Slime Language II compilation. Lava/Republic’s Greta Van Fleet and EMI Nashville’s Eric Church should debut in the Top 10 on this week’s HITS Top 50.
Who took home the big trophies from Sunday night’s 56th ACM Awards? Maren Morris, Luke Bryan, Thomas Rhett, Gabby Barrett, Carly Pearce, Lee Brice, Chris Stapleton, Jimmie Allen and many more.
Hits List is open, but capacity is limited. Entrants must meet certain criteria, such as performing at an MVP level like Taylor Swift, going on a sustained roll like Columbia, draining treys like Eric Church or drawing up scoring plays like Wendy Goldstein, Gary Kelly, Ericka Coulter and Ola Ali. Cardboard stand-ins are no longer permitted.
The potential return of the U.K.’s live-music industry is kicking off 5/2 with a 5k-capacity outdoor gig from Blossoms at Sefton Park in Liverpool as part of the government’s pilot scheme. Attendees will be tested before and after entry.
Chris Stapleton’s lengthy All-American Road Show has been revamped again with 18 shows added.
Elle King & Miranda Lambert’s “Drunk (And I Don’t Want to Go Home)” (RCA) shoots to the top of the iTunes songs chart following the duo’s show opening performance on the 56th annual ACM Awards.
Geffen’s Urban promo squad, led by Carlos “Los” Ogando, scores its second #1 at Urban Radio this year with SpotemGottem’s “Beat Box.”
