Telling the story behind the numbers in the music industry.

“We're relying on live streams to give us some semblance of normalcy as we chart the months ahead, and paying songwriters for their contributions to these broadcast events must become the norm as well.” Timely and Insightful analysis from @DavidIsraelite. @NMPAorg

@_youhadonejob1 @TheTrashcans - best lockdown ever!

@azpeacemakers Also, a great opportunity to share a shot of @MexMoonshine with a friend - the “gift a ticket” option is also simple. You know you would have brought all your friends to a live show anyway, so get out there and gift some tickets. We all know that this show will blow us away!

.@Nielsen’s data shows that 18% of all #music fans discover new music from TV shows-Tonight’s @billboard #BBMAs gives fans a great opportunity to see (and hear) some of the hottest acts @BTS_twt @ArianaGrande @taylorswift13 @maluma @thegreatkhalid https://t.co/3YTnvhIxW4

Major copyright news out of Europe! In an increasingly global music business, we all need to educate ourselves - the works isn’t done and the discussion will continue. https://t.co/Ai0L9UXlcx

@EvolvingWild I’m very late to the game here, but new to me @BadBadHats are wonderful and just put on a great show @sxsw.

@MarissaRMoss Looking at top Country airplay chart for week-ending 1/31, there is ONE female artist in the top 30 songs (#19 Carrie Underwood/“Love Wins”). Your point is valid and needs to be addressed.

[Dave Bakula @davebakula]

@theglennpeoples @KaceyMusgraves @Grammys That's total radio (all formats) for all her songs combined. Certainly, other formats have and will jump on as well.

[Dave Bakula @davebakula]

You think #CountryRadio will take notice of @KaceyMusgraves now? Total catalog has been averaging 200 spins wkly @ radio pre-@Grammys w/ an audience around 500K. Those numbers spiked last week (+746% in audience) in anticipation of her performance. Is this her #GoldenHour?

@JakeRudh @ElliotEastonEE One of the first LPs I remember buying with my own money. Hopefully, that shows my excellent taste in music more than my advanced age!

[Dave Bakula @davebakula]

@AndrewSurmani Congrats on a very well deserved appointment!

Did @KathrynTappen just anoint @LilJon the unofficial captain of the Vegas Golden Knights? Ok, I think that’s about enough surprises for this year @GoldenKnights. #StanleyCupPlayoffs

[Dave Bakula @davebakula]

First K-Pop album to hit #1 on the @billboard top 200 chart ever - truly historic week for the charts and for @bts_bighit @BTS_twt and the loyal fans @BTS_National! https://t.co/9ho4hsJxh7
