Japanese Breakfast go for a fourth week at #1
The year rolls along with a markedly lower tally of #1 records (six) than previous years. At this time last year we’d had 11 #1s, in 2018 it was 10, and in 2019 we’d seen 14 chart-toppers by the third week of July. This week Japanese Breakfast earns the second-longest chart run of the year (behind the whopping 12-week run Arlo Parks enjoyed beginning last February). Their third LP, Jubilee (Dead Oceans/Secretly Group) spends a fourth week on top. King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard (2-2) closes the gap between #1 and #2 and will mount another challenge for the top spot along with Modest Mouse (3-3) & Lucy Dacus (7-5). read more…
Industry Interview with Emma Toney, Beggars Group
“Working at Beggars is a dream come true! I raised myself on their roster growing up, all of the artists are so very important to me. I’ve been a huge fan of Lucy Dacus for years. ‘Brando’ was my first big radio release as radio coordinator, then ‘Home Video’ album release. It was so special to celebrate the success of the album with the Beggars family that I’m now apart of.”
July MD of the Month | Jaden Amjadi, KRUI Iowa City
“I love finding cool artists in my inbox that I may never have listened to otherwise and meeting with my cool staff. This position in college radio is such a unique privilege because we don’t have to cater to what will turn a profit or appeal to the widest listenership. We are an educational laboratory. If you listen to a couple of hours of KRUI’s main rotation, you’ll probably run into some abrasive or strange stuff, and that’s beautiful to me.”
Introducing Joey Letcher, host of the NACC 20 Countdown Show
“Sharing music with others is a big passion of mine. It’s crazy, because I used to make little curated new music playlists for friends and share them on Facebook. Now I’m getting to share new music with the entire NACC audience! So the best part for me is connecting people to new music, sharing my stories and connections to the artists.”
