Americana Music News — The hottest album in Americana music this week is Buddy and Jim, the New West release from Buddy Miller and Jim Lauderdale, due Dec. 11.
These guys are among the most fervent supporters and popular performers in Americana Music, and both have been highly visible and oft-honored at the annual Americana Music Festival.
Little wonder, then, that the new album broke into the Americana music airplay chart at #21. It was also the most added album this week, with 32 stations picking it up.
Meanwhile, Lauderdale’s own Carolina Moonrise remains at #28.
Also new to the chart this week: Greg Brown’s Hymns to What’s Left.
