CRS Releases Country Fans Research Presentation By NuVoodoo Media
Country Radio Seminar has released the video for its CRS NuVoodoo Media Research Presentation, delivered during CRS 2025.
NuVoodoo Media’s 2025 study, which surveyed 1,500 country music fans across the country, offers a comprehensive analysis of the changing perceptions, behaviors and preferences influencing the country music scene. The key takeaway is that, despite ongoing competition for fan engagement, most respondents feel that the overall quality of country music is improving.
The presentation highlights the vital role of country radio, emphasizing its support for on-air talent, promotion of music discovery and ability to create local connections between listeners and their favorite artists. It also stresses the importance of remotes and public appearances in maintaining radio’s visibility and its relevance in the larger industry dialogue.
Many other sessions from CRS 2025 are also available for streaming here on the Media tab, including “Honky Tonk to Tik Tok: Country’s Wild Five-Year Ride By The Numbers,” “Cycle of A Song: Ella Langley,” “Why Can’t We Be Friends?” “Are You AI Curious?” “Sound Off: What Is Mainstream Country,” “Stop Trying So Hard Become A Better Content Creator,” “Teamwork Makes The Dream Work,” “Showcase Your Assets,” “CRS 2025: CRS Honors Ceremony” and “Mental Health Matters: CMA’s Commitment To Well-Being.”
