Gen Z: Country’s Next Generation

Demographically, Gen X and Millennials comprise most of the Country format’s 25-54 core, but Generation Z – born between 1996 and 2012 – are on the doorstep. Gen Z’s oldest members turn 25 this year and, as that 20% segment of the total population ages in, Gen X will be transitioning out. Understanding this potential disruption will be critical to the format and genre as a whole. A consumer study by Actionable Insights Group (AIG) offers insight into generational differences with – hint – good and bad news on the horizon. Data Day: AIG collected data from 11,400 people nationwide, all of whom self-identified as weekly media consumers. The sample included 60% female participants and 40% male, with approximately 45% Gen Z, 20% Millennials (ages 26 to 41), 20% Generation X (42 to 60) and 15% Baby Boomers (ages 61 to 76). Although Gen Z could range in age from 9 to 25, the Gen Z sample of approximately 5,100 participants in this study was limited to media consumers ages 14 to 25. Respondents were from major (32%), large (15%), medium (16%) and small (37%) media markets. First, the good news. A greater percentage of Gen Z consume audio on a monthly, weekly and daily basis than prior generations, and there is a consistent negative relationship between age and the percentage of the generation consuming audio. As age increases, audio consumption decreases. (See chart on page 10.) Looking at listening patterns, a greater percentage of Gen Z consume audio between 9am and midnight than do their counterparts; however, Millennials and Gen X report higher audio consumption between 5am and 9am, whereas a larger percentage of Boomers consume audio during the overnight hours. (See chart on page 10.) Break The Change: While Gen Z shows a higher propensity for consumption, how they are listening varies greatly from older generations. Though a similar percentage of all four generations consume audio while driving or riding in a vehicle, a greater share of Gen Z consume audio while exercising, getting ready for the day, working, and during free time than previous generations. Despite this tendency to listen longer (continued on page 8)

Old Dominion Snaps Back To Touring

Days after the biggest add date of their career (“I Was On A Boat That Day”), Arista’s Old Dominion launched one of the first post-pandemic tours at Choctaw Casino & Resort in Durant, OK. KITX/Hugo, OK GM/PD Will Payne was in the house and agreed to double as Country Aircheck’s correspondent. With no support artists on the bill, Old Dominion kicked off with “a dark entrance right into ‘Snapback,’” Payne says, Old Dominion noting lead singer Matthew Ramsey primed the crowd by saying, “’Are you ready? It’s so good to be back!” That was followed with “Hotel Key,” when Payne says, “The bass kicked in and confetti from 2019 fell from the rafters. It was awesome. “You could tell [Ramsey] was moving slower than normal,” Payne says, noting the singer’s recent fall from a ladder. “At times you could see him wince, but he held in there well.” The band took

Chart Chat

Congratulations to Dylan Scott, RJ Meacham, Mike Rogers and the Curb promotion team on claiming the No. 1 slot this week with “Nobody.” This becomes Scott’s second No. 1, and the song’s 53-week chart run becomes the fifth longest journey to No. 1 in CA/MB history. Scott is no stranger to chart longevity; his first No. 1, “My Girl,” took 45 weeks to reach the top, and “Hooked” spent 50 weeks to get to No. 2 in 2018. Songwriters are Dallas Wilson, Matt Alderman and Scott.

OFF THE RECORD An Off The Record conversation with Big Yellow Dog co-owner/CEO Carla Wallace: Music was definitely an interest. I came from a musical family – not that they were any good at it – but I’d get quizzed on who was singing, who wrote a song, or who produced it. Especially by my dad. We spoke in song lyrics. I grew up in Nashville, went to Belmont for music CARLA WALLACE business, did internships in publishing, and loved songs and writers so much I never left. I grew up listening to WKDF when it was still a Rock station. Coyote! I got his autograph. Those were the days when DJs were everything. I also got Wolfman Jack’s autograph on a t-shirt. There’s a new pop artist on Atlantic we’re working with, Eloise Alterman, who is that great combination of writer and artist. And I’m also enjoying working with Clare Dunn, who is an amazing talent, producer, writer, artist and musician. She’s bubbling with talent and songs and just keeps hitting me with new ones. Another new artist I’m enjoying working with is Cecilia Castleman. Starting out with artists is fun, but so is working with someone like Jessie James Decker, who is such a powerhouse and really knows her own mind and music. Last year taught me that stretchy pants are good. And as an independent company with a pretty sizeable staff and a lot of writers, it was the most challenging experience I’ve had. Continuing to do our jobs, keep going and encourage everyone when nobody knew what to expect ... the team accepted that challenge. We didn’t know we could do that, and then we did. We made it work and didn’t lose anyone along the way. It brought us closer together. I’ve seen all of Netflix, moved on to Hulu and now I need to find other things. I’m enjoying Hemingway on PBS right now. The way we do business is forever changed by this. You don’t have to sit in an office the whole time. It can be a hybrid. I learned a lot by slowing down and getting more focused. It actually seemed easier to get people’s attention and responses back.

Gen Z: Country’s Next Generation

(continued from page 1) while doing more, Gen Z is the least likely to listen to AM/FM radio and most likely to listen to Spotify. Still, AM/FM radio has a notable advantage with Gen Z over Apple Music, SiriusXM and the remaining DSPs, and radio holds a clear advantage over the other platforms and devices for Boomers, Gen X and Millennials. (See table on page 10.) For most Millennials, terrestrial radio was the primary source of music and audio entertainment in their formative years. Cassette tapes and CDs were among very few alternative sources until the internet and DSPs became options. Conversely, Gen Z has come of age with smartphones as their primary source of audio and video entertainment, as the iPhone made its debut in 2007 when the eldest of Gen Z were just 11 years old. To that point, aside from the radio in their cars, Boomers (62%) and Gen X (63%) were most likely to own an AM/FM radio,

When it comes to social media, Facebook is the most widely used platform for Millennials, followed by YouTube, and Instagram. Gen Z, however, prefers Instagram followed by Snapchat, Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok. Boomers 35 (70%), Gen X (79%), Millennials (79%) and Gen Z (70%) are all likely to check their email multiple 30 times per day. Gen Z further complicates the radio conversation around advertising.

courtesy of browser cookies, activity tracking and audience segmentation. Many of those advertisements are delivered through their smartphone, and despite changes in privacy updates, Gen Z is already conditioned to expect only relevant advertisements. They’ve also been conditioned to opting out, unsubscribing and blocking spammers. To continue meeting expectations for Gen Z and generations to follow, radio will need to figure out ways to account for and adjust to these habits. Radio positioning statements like “home of the hits” raise the question about where future generations will find the trust and familiarity associated with “home.” Will it be technology specific, platform specific or about specific brands delivered in myriad ways? Time remains to answer these questions for Gen Z, but the future approaches. By 2030, more than 50% of Gen Z will be in the core Country demo. –Billy Ray McKim AIG’s Billy Ray McKim, Ph.D., is a data scientist specializing in media research and audience analysis and monetization.

By comparison, 99% of Gen Z, 99% of Millennials, 97% of Gen X and 94% of Boomers own a smartphone.

That number dipped slightly for Gen Z (40%) and Gen X (39%), falling to only 27% ownership for Boomers. Genre Pending: Gen Z is consuming audio, but are they listening to country music? When asked what they listen to at least monthly, 79% of Gen Z said they listen to country, with 32% citing it as their preferred genre. Pop was the only genre with a greater listening percentage (83%), but only 16% pointed to pop as their preferred genre.
