Weekly Chart Report (4/20/2012)

April 20, 2012/in Featured, Radio /by Freeman

WCOW/Sparta, WI picked up the People’s Choice Award for Best Radio Station in Northwest Wisconsin at the Wisconsin Area Music Industry Awards in Appleton last Sunday (4/15). WCOW PD Arnie Andrews (pictured) dedicated the honor to the Rice family, who have owned the station since 1953.

SPIN ZONE
Rascal Flatts is still making a case for “Banjo”-driven music and some rural surroundings, sticking for a second week as the CountryBreakout Chart’s No. 1 song. In fact, positions 1-6 remain entirely unchanged despite big gains by Eric Church’s “Springsteen” at No. 3 and Jason Aldean’s “Fly Over States” at No. 4. Maybe next week, guys. Strutting their way toward the top are Luke Bryan’s “Drunk On You” moving 10-7, Eli Young Band’s “Even If It Breaks Your Heart” moving 9-8 at Kip Moore’s“Somethin’ ‘Bout A Truck” moving 12-10.

It’s superstar summer single-stravaganza time, and heatwave calibrated tunes are on the rise. Toby Keith’s “Beers Ago” is hovering just outside the Top 10 at No. 12, moving up with a big 268 spin gain. Kenny Chesney and Tim McGraw’s “Feel Like a Rock Star” isn’t far behind at No. 16 after only three weeks. Also in the hunt is Dierks Bentley’s “5-1-5-0” which jumps to No. 20.

A couple of impressive debuts jump out in the second half of the chart, led by MusicRow Independent Artist of the Year Eric Lee Beddingfield’s “Come On” at No. 71. Just a step behind at No. 72 is Montgomery Gentry’s “So Called Life.” Outside the Top 80 and poised for some chart action is Josh Abbott Band’s “Touch,” and the countrified version of Kelly Clarkson’s “Mr. Know It All.”
