Monument Doubles Down On Radio

Three years in, Monument Records was executing its marketing-centric vision in conjunction with radio promotion support from Sony/Nashville. The label even enjoyed a top 10 with Walker Hayes’ “You Broke Up With Me” in 2018. Seeking stronger integration with radio, the company has added a promotion team led by radio vet turned VP/Promotion Drew Bland (Breaking News 4/23). The approach at radio will share in the company’s broader vision. “We’ve been working to build artistry with true brand development [over the] last couple of years and are really proud of what we’ve accomplished,” says songwriter/producer/ publisher Shane McAnally, who serves as Monument Co-President alongside manager Jason Owen. “Now that we’ve got a solid foundation to stand on, it was natural for us to take this next step to complete these stories Shane McAnally directly with radio.” In conjunction with the addition of Bland and regionals Lisa Mastrianni and Katelyn Lester, Monument upped SVP/Marketing & Label Ops. Katie McCartney to GM. “We always valued radio, but this was dreamt up as a way to partner with other Sony labels to work at radio while we hyper-focused from a marketing standpoint,” McCartney says. “We Katie McCartney were able to do that, but being so focused and nimble, we often found ourselves having to wait our turn to approach radio. As fast as we were working and succeeding in other areas, we needed to add our own team.” Setting The Agenda: The plan has been coming together over the last six months. “We had to get this situated in the Sony system, and we had to find the exact right people,” McCartney says.

For Peets’ Sake: Warner/WMN’s Brett Eldredge (l) and Q Prime South’s John Peets are joined by radio from across the country for a livestreamed Sunday Drive on a Friday afternoon (4/24).

More Silver Linings

In an ongoing effort to highlight industry positives in these uncertain times (a phrase no one wants to hear – or write – again), Country Aircheck checks in with several DSPs and looks at an example of the ongoing if not improving dialogue between Country radio and its listeners. Stream On: Typically reticent to share much of anything – certainly not specific metrics – streaming companies have nevertheless publicized significant initiatives during the COVID-19 crisis. A few officially sanctioned insights and informal conversations with top streaming execs illuminate some general trends. Overall streaming seems to be down, as commuting and

gym time have cratered. The good news, however, is country numbers are holding their own, if not growing. An on-the-record submission comes from Pandora, which reports country streaming is up, with Today’s Country rising over the past month to become the service’s No. 1 station. Country Faith and Country Fitness stations have also seen growth, according to a company spokesperson. Pandora’s newest adaptations include the artist-curated playlist series Listen In, which embeds commentary from participants to-date Carly Pearce, Brandy Clark, LeAnn Rimes and Eli Young Band. And, of course, Pandora parent SiriusXM is streaming its entire service free on its app and online through May 15 here. Likewise, Amazon Music reports growth for country. “At the outset, our team created programmed content to help our customers adjust to a more at-home lifestyle and saw playlists such as Feel Good Country and the country themed Liquor Cabinet grow in engagement,“ says Sr. Country Curator Emily Cohen. “We saw listeners begin to go back to their regular listening habits by mid-April. Country Heat, Fresh Country and our Top Country station[s] have remained popular ... with consistent growth for all three and individual spikes for each at different points throughout the first couple of weeks of April.“ Emily Cohen Adds Country Lead Kelly Rich, “We’ve also worked with artists such as Willie Nelson, Gabby Barrett and the ACMs for the ACM Presents: One Country pre-show special to host livestreamed performances and content via our Amazon Music Twitch channel and Amazon Live.“ Amazon Music has also made donations to COVID-19 relief funds of MusiCares and ACM Lifting Lives. The service formerly known as Slacker – LiveXLive – offers the most detail. “Overall, we’ve taken hits in total listening

due to the loss of drive time,” says VP/ Programming Kevin Stapleford. “Like terrestrial, large swaths of our listening comes from in-car usage, especially since we power the music service in Tesla. In terms of genres, country has evidenced the lowest drop in unique users and aggregated hours of listening. Pop and Hip Hop (our two other major genres) have been hit four times as Kevin Stapleford hard. TSL has remained pretty solid for all genres although, again, country has shown the least impact. Thank goodness for those dedicated country users!” The At Home Hub from Spotify collects relevant podcasts and music, recently bowing Dolly Parton’s At Home Together playlist. The company’s COVID-19 Music Relief project is supporting music industry relief with a donation match of up to $10 million to organizations that now include Nashville-based Music Health Alliance. The Artist Fundraising Pick allows artists to choose where to direct fan support. And Spotify launched the fan surprise series The Drop In today (4/27) with Morgan Wallen crashing a Zoom call with some of his fans to perform his single “More Than My Hometown.” Beats 1 host Zane leads Apple Music’s upcoming FaceTime visits with Keith Urban and Brandi Carlisle discussing their curated At Home With playlists. The At Home With series chats have also featured country host Kelleigh Bannen with Sam Hunt, Breland and Shane McAnally. Access the series here.

WI TH A day in the self-isolated life of Bonneville KYGO/Denver PD Brian Michel: We have me, my wife, three kids, two dogs and a cat at home, so the biggest change to daily life has been making sure the kids are set for home/online schooling. The good news is that each kid has their own activities going on, so one son still practices his hockey stick handling/ shooting, my middle son is a great coder and is always making games and producing electronic music and my daughter still has her dance classes online. My wife and I both work in essential fields, so we are juggling the kids’ commitments with ours. Beyond that, I miss seeing my son’s hockey games and my daughter’s dance classes. We previously had something every night of the week; for now, we’ve replaced those things with watching movies together. I have found some more time to write code and build online apps at night and during the weekends since I am not an Uber for the kids right now. We are also

We shared onscreen resources and links we gathered where

finding time for riding bikes together on a regular basis. I still come to the office most days, but with so few people in the building, I am able to be laser focused and get done what I need to. I try to head home a little early to get in a run and workout. Quarantine has certainly enhanced my creativity … and some of that is out of necessity. We’re creating more special programming [since] radio needs to connect with and serve the local audience. If ever a time has shown that radio needs to be live, local and meaningful rather than a Spotify playlist clone, this is it. We have become more of a locally focused, full-service station that just happens to play great country music. We’re still live and local 24/7, and you see it not just in the ratings but with the direct communication with our listeners. They trust KYGO to be there for them, and we love having that opportunity. During quarantine, I watched all of Schitt’s Creek. I’m not proud to admit it,

listeners can get help and ways we all can assist each other. We also had an open forum letting listeners tell us how we can further help amplify any issue or need in their neighborhood, along with personal updates on how we are doing. We also had some fun showing off our pets.” Listeners were also given input on the station’s 30 Say Thank You campaign, which spotlights a local restaurant each morning and has 30 listeners buy a lunch for delivery to medical professionals at a local hospital that day. “More than 550 meals

Study Shows Increased Engagement

As coronavirus (COVID-19) continued effecting daily lives nationwide, Cox Media Group conducted a study to determine its impact on radio listening. Completed March 30-April 3, the survey was fielded online with 11,000 listeners representing a variety of demographics within the P18-54 cell. Respondents reported the following: • 94% indicate tuning into local radio more than any other streaming service for music, talk and information. • One-third are listening to radio more since the outbreak. Those listening more or the same amount are tuning in via smart phone (81%), desktop or laptop (67%), radio station app (57%), car radio (55%), home radio (54%), tablet (48%) or a smart speaker (36%). • Topics listeners are most interested in from local radio include feel-good stories, things to make them laugh and local virus updates. • 68% of participants experienced a change in job status; of those, 34% are working from home, 26% have taken a reduction in hours and 24% have been furloughed or have lost their jobs. “Listeners depend on our radio brands more than ever for a mix of news, entertainment and a friendly and familiar voice to keep them going during this uncertain time,” says CMG VP/Audience & Content Tim Clarke. “They are captive and immersed in our content on all platforms, and our top personalities continue to deliver.” For questions or to discuss audience engagement and content with Clarke, email him here. –Monta Vaden

Chart Chat

Congratulations to Ingrid Andress, Kristen Williams, Tom Martens, James Marsh, Adrian Michaels and the Warner/ WEA promotion team on landing at No. 1 with “More Hearts Than Mine.” The song is Andress’ first release to radio and her first No. 1. Songwriters are Sam Ellis, Derrick Ingrid Andress Southerland and Andress. On the heels of last week’s No. 1 debut by Warner/WAR’s Gabby Barrett, this marks the first time in Country Aircheck chart history that two debut solo artists have had consecutive No. 1s. The last back-to-back female No. 1s were Kelsea Ballerini’s “Love Me Like You Mean It” succeeded by Carrie Underwood’s “Little Toy Guns” (CAW 6/29/15). And kudos to Dennis Reese and the RCA crew on notching 97 adds for Kane Brown’s “Cool Again” topping this week’s board.

News & Notes

Austin Radio Network, including Country KOKE/Austin, raised more than $270,000 during their Buy A Box campaign benefitting the Central Texas Food Bank.

WITH

... KING CALAWAY

A day in the self-isolated lives of King Calaway’s Caleb Miller, Chris Deaton, Simon Dumas, Jordan Harvey, Chad Michael Jervis and Austin Luther. SD: Quarantine has turned everything upside down. I’m in Gibraltar with my family right now, and I haven’t had this much time at home since moving to Nashville two years ago. It’s a very different lifestyle to my Nashville routine, but it’s lovely to be in the comfort of my hometown. CMJ: Quarantine is teaching me how to make the most of my day while being stuck indoors. I’ve been trying to schedule and plan when to work, be creative, workout and — most importantly — relax. CD: My day starts with a cup of coffee followed by a workout — it’s important to try and stay active during all of this. I check the calendar, make a to-do list and hit the pad at some point to keep my chops up. Usually, we’re working on a video to put out for everyone, so I’ll film myself playing and send it to the boys. CM: I wake up every morning and do my daily workout routine, play music, then sit on my couch until I lose my mind! JH: I’m back living with my parents, which has been really nice. Luckily, I occupy the back of the house and they occupy the front. My dad is at work making masks and visiting for the National Health Service, so I only see him in the evening. SD: I’ve had a few co-writes, but they aren’t the same. The biggest difference is not being King calaway able to feel the room and the energy. On the other hand, it’s given me a chance to sit with ideas a little longer and feel less pressurized. CD: I definitely miss being in the room with my friends while writing and creating. But, instead of getting frustrated, I try to feel thankful that we live in a time where technology allows us to still create with friends. CM: My favorite part has been the connectivity with the fans on social media. The fact that the fans want to interact with the band during this time means a lot to us as artists. AL: Live videos have helped fans connect when we don’t have the ability to physically play for people. JH: Currently bingeing my guitar and ukulele. I’m yet to try out this Tiger King everyone is talking about. CM: Carole definitely killed her husband… CMJ: Although this time has been devastating, I do believe this is something that has brought us closer together as people. With all of the division we are facing, I’m glad we could step up and look out for one another. SD: More family time is priceless. I’m having a chance to reconnect spiritually … to really think. I appreciate the way it’s opened up the definition of gratitude. Most of us can take this time to learn what gratitude truly is and not take anything for granted.

Monument Doubles Down On Radio

(continued from page 1)

Wanting to get deeper into the radio space, she served on the CRS Agenda Committee last year, where she met Bland in person for the first time. “I really liked his ideas, and we got along really well,” she says. “He was in the back of my mind as we started working toward adding a team, and when I asked friends in promotion at other labels who in radio might be good to bring over, his name came up more than once. That doubled down on what I was thinking in bringing in someone who looks at things from a new angle rather than a more experienced mindset. “Jason and Shane have a unique way of looking at artists and music – there are no boxes,” McCartney continues. “Their ©2020 Countr y Aircheck™ — All rights reser ved.

view is good music fits everywhere. We needed to bring in a team that could be that innovative with us. Drew had never worked on the record side, but he was an innovative programmer and hungry to come over. That’s why he was our choice.” Like McCartney, Bland was drawn to the ideas cropping up in their discussions. “Over the conversations we had, a friendship was made, and I realized she, Jason and Shane have built something really unique,” he says. “[Working on the music side] is always been something I’ve been interested in, and this happened to be a good fit.” Bland flew into Nashville Saturday and is on the job today ... at his apartment in Green Hills. “We won’t be instituting a dress code right off,” he laughs. “It will be sweatpants and t-shirts the first few weeks.” Putting his team together started with a few characteristics. “Hustle, persistence and honesty,” he says. “Experience and current relationships are a plus, but I’ve always erred on the side of getting great people and go from there. Set clear expectations, and off we go. “I’ve seen all sides,” he continues. “Some promotion people really believe in helping stations; some are just focused on one mission. We want to do it right and forge deeper relationships between artists, stations and markets. Having a strong background in successful radio stations, I intend to bring that level of empathy for programmers and knowledge of radio strategy to this world.” Take The Cake Walk: Despite his radio experience, there’s much he doesn’t know about the label business, but he’s not put off. “Every area of our lives right now is like drinking from a fire hose,” Bland says. “I’m not sure a career change affects that much. The good news is I have a team around me at Monument that is well established and experienced. Together, we should be able to navigate this.” Bland says reaction to his new job has been mixed. “A lot of PD friends have started or ended by telling me I sound like a typical record guy – just to jab me,” he admits. “From the record label side, it’s mostly been, ‘good luck – this is hard.’ Yeah, so is programming a radio station. That’s no walk in the park, either. But I’ve given people grief for a long time, so I expected to get a lot back.” Monument’s goal is to operate with the “utmost respect” for radio stations. “It might be cliché, but it comes down to honesty,” Bland says. “The numbers are the numbers. Labels can see them, PDs can see them and there’s no changing them. Where I’d like to hang our hat is on always telling the truth. [Programmers] are

Page 12

in one of the trickiest climates we’ve seen. We obviously believe 100% in what radio brings – making an impact in their markets and helping build artist careers. Jason, Shane and Katie believed in that to the extent of making this the time to add a promotion department.” Though the team will be larger than its initial iteration, it will remain more compact than is typical. “That’s intentional,” McCartney says. “We’re approaching the landscape as it is today and want to keep the team nimble and effective.” Know Problem: Marketing is also part of the job description. “Our regionals’ priority will be working with stations and getting airplay, but they are also charged with marketing on the market level,” she says. “That goes for our artists, too. We challenge them to know and love every market on a local level as they do their hometown or Nashville.” That intensity is a reflection of Monument’s marketing approach. “We’ve always made it a point to get into the individual markets – really infiltrate, do things differently and build up streams,” McCartney says. “Now, if we invest the time to do a radio show – even if we haven’t had a hit – we’re drawing a crowd. Also, we’re small enough that promotion and marketing are going to be able to understand each other and work together seamlessly. That’s not always the case at larger companies.” The mindset runs all the way to the top. “I actually started in radio in high school, then went on to have an artist career where I did a national radio tour,” McAnally says. “After 20 years of different phases of my career, I’ve still got some of those same relationships. My career has been built in partnership with radio, and I am so committed to this format and what it has done for me as a songwriter and producer. I have a responsibility to provide radio with great music, and Monument is now built to accomplish that.” Reach McCartney here and Bland here. –Chuck Aly
