Charting: Steep Canyon Rangers, Lumineers

 in Reviews

Last week we confidently predicted a long run for Lyle Lovett’s Release Me at the top of the Americana Music Association airplay chart. So much for that. This week Justin Townes Earles’ Nothing’s Gonna Change the Way You Feel About Me moved past it to the number one position.

Chart debuts this week: The Steep Canyon Rangers’ Nobody Knows You at #22, the Infamous Stringdusters’ Silver Sky at #30, The Lumineers album at #34 and Anais Mitchell’s Young Man in America at #40.

The most-added album on Americana music radio was Hank III’s Long Gone Daddy.

Americana music chart: “Chimes of Freedom,” Gretchen Peters in Top 10

 in Americana Music

It’s an unusual week on the Americana music airplay chart, with no new entries in the top 40. The Chimes of Freedom Dylan tribute and Gretchen Peters’ Hello Cruel World are among the biggest gainers, with both breaking into the top 10.
The real action is on the most-added list with Anais Mitchell’s Young Man in America, Otis Taylor’s Contraband, the Chieftains’ Voice of Ages, Amos Lee’s As the Crow Flies and the Punch Brothers’ Who’s Feeling Young Now? picking up airplay.
Singer-songwriter and occasional Sun209 contributor Tommy Womack’s new Now What! has been added to seven stations, tying Bruce Springsteen. Pretty good company.
