CRS360 Series Releases ‘The Music Test’ On Demand

Country Radio Broadcasters has officially released “The Music Test” as part of its CRS360 series, now available for on-demand viewing.

Presented by NuVoodoo’s Leigh Jacobs, “The Music Test” serves as a follow-up to the organization’s Online Music Test (OMT) unveiled during CRS in March. This latest installment expands on those findings, offering deeper analysis, updated rankings, and strategic recommendations drawn from a national online music test conducted exclusively for CRS.

Jacobs is joined by CRS Research Co-Chairs Clay Hunnicutt and Justin Chase.

The original CRS 2026 research session featured a comprehensive nationwide study examining more than 400 songs spanning from the 1990s to today, tested among 600 country music fans ages 18 to 49.
