CMA Hosts Carrie, Brad Aim For Unity Co-hosts for 10 years now, Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley had a lot to say about the 51st CMA Awards during Sunday’s radio remotes orientation at the Music City Center. Grief, comedy, unity and a hint about the best performance of the night were all open topics for discussion. To no one’s surprise, the Route 91 Harvest tragedy in Las Vegas was an ever-present backdrop to the press conference. “Art is important in these times, especially art that allows you to process,” Paisley said. “If we are at our best Wednesday night, we are going to be a therapy session. We are going to be a chance to get togeth-er and mourn, celebrate the good things and lift one another up.

That’s why it’s important to watch.” Asked about finding a balance with lighter material, Underwood added, “There’s a lot to talk about, it’s just the way in which we talk about it that’s been the challenge. We’re not short of news, we’re just trying to find our way on how to deliver. It’s a balance. I hope we get it all right.” “We won’t,” Paisley joked. “If you ever go to a memorial service, you will hear a lot of laughter because it’s a place you tell stories. This isn’t a me-morial service this year, but there is an

aspect of the show that has to memorialize some things. In some ways, the comedy aspect of what we’ve written has come a little easier. It’s just how to put that in the right place in the show.” Perfect 10? Much of the discussion focused on the pair’s 10th anniversary as hosts. The advantage in experience, they said, is familiarity.

Magic Classic Country WWLY/Panama City afternoon host Melissa Miller discusses her most influential music:1. Garth Brooks: I made the “mistake” of seeing him in concert as a teenager, and he ruined concerts for me going forward. Nobody’s ever going to beat Garth! He is constantly moving, growing and striving for more. Everyone can learn a little something from Garth.

2. Randy Travis’ Always & Forever: I am still in awe of Randy’s ability to bring a song to life in such an effortless way. When I feel like I need to get “back to country,” this is where I still go.3. Miranda Lambert: She’s the artist who made it okay to be vulnerable and not okay all the time. As cliché as it sounds, she’s been quite empowering for me.4. Dolly Parton: I was digging through albums as a kid and discovered Dolly’s Coat of Many Colors. That was my first experience of realizing you could set words to music and put life into a song. To this day, story songs are still my favorite.5. Hank Williams Sr.: He defined country music to me as a kid and still does. His sound was so stripped down and simple, but at the same time, pure genius.• Highly regarded music you’ve actually never heard: Kane Brown seems to be the latest and greatest, but I still haven’t checked out the whole album.• “Important” music you just don’t get: The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. I can’t name even one song by either band. They’re both insanely talented. I just never fell in love the way everyone else in the word has.• An album you listened to incessantly: Then –Jerrod Niemann’s Judge Jerrod & the Hung Jury. Now – Dierks Bentley’s Black.• An obscure or non-country song everyone should listen to right now: Gary Allan’s “Putting My Misery On Display.” Gary is my favorite artist and the reason I fell in love with country music. This song is raw. It almost felt like it was too personal to listen to. It made me realize you should embrace whatever you’re going through and not be afraid to share that with your audience.• Music you’d rather not admit to enjoying: New Kids On The Block. Although, I did feel better about this after seeing them in Atlanta and being surrounded by grown women crying tears of joy at the sight of them. At least I’m not that bad.

MY TUNES: MUSIC THAT SHAPED MY LIFE

Atlantic/WAR’s Ashley McBryde puts an industry spin on the artist interview: I grew up listening to KAMS/Thayer, MO and KOOU/Hardy, AR. The first time I heard a song of mine on the radio was “Bible And A .44” on SiriusXM’s The Highway, on Eric Church’s Outsiders Radio show. And when “A Little Dive Bar In Dahlonega” played on The

Highway, I was with my co-writers, Nicolette Hayford and Jesse Rice, in my truck. There’s a Facebook video of us hearing it together for the first time. My first radio tour experience was with Raffaella Braun. That was the best possible way to break me in. She’s so on top of it, takes such good care of things, and she’s fun to travel with. And when I met Anna Cage, I got off the plane in Maine and got in the car with her. The first thing she said was, “How tired are you? I’ve entered us in a Rock, Paper, Scissors contest.” I always look for the weird doo rags in the clothing section at truck stops. I’d love to have dinner with James Dean – and I’d order hot wings. When all the girls I knew in high school were hanging pictures of Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe in their rooms, I was hanging pictures of James Dean. I’ve always been drawn to him. Maybe I was born too late. My last impulse buy was wine wipes, for your teeth when you drink red wine. I don’t even drink wine. I just bought them because I’d never seen them before! The most redneck thing I’ve done lately? Tell you that I shop for clothes in truck stops. (laughs) I wish I’d written Joni Mitchell’s “A Case Of You.” When she says, “Part of you pours out of me in these lines from time to time” ... that is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard. I have to have my denim jacket with me on the road. It’s just big enough to cover you on cold airplanes and vans, but light enough not to be too hot. And it has inside pockets. Since I don’t carry a purse, those pockets hold my phone charger, ear buds, sunglasses – all the essentials. I’d love to be stuck in Chicago. It’s one of the most beautiful, most interesting places I’ve been so far. And Portland, Maine. If I spent more than a week there, I’d be in danger of not coming home.

OFF THE RECORD: ASHLEY MCBRYDE

Chart Chat Congrats to Thomas Rhett, George Briner, Ashley Sidoti and the Valory promotion crew on securing this week’s No. 1 with “Unforgettable.” The song is the second chart-topper from Life Changes. Songwriters are Jesse Frasure, Ashley Gorley, Shane McAnally and Rhett. And kudos to Bob Reeves and the Reviv-er team on landing 50 adds for David Lee Murphy and Kenny Chesney’s “Everything’s Gonna Be Alright,” topping this week’s board. Finally, a significant milestone for Blake Shelton and the WMN team, as six singles from his new album Texoma Shore chart – unprecedented in the history of Country Aircheck. In addition to lead single “I’ll Name The Dogs,” charting tracks are “At The House,” “I Lived It,” “Turnin’ Me On,” “Money,” and “Why Me.” Unquestionably a successfully executed plan to raise aware-ness for the album, the campaign also has some chart impli-cations worth pointing out. Driven largely by a program with iHeartMedia sponsored by Nissan, airplay for the five album cuts was significant enough to affect several other singles. Mercury’s Lauren Alaina moved down (45-48) with “Doin’ Fine” and Curb’s Dylan Scott also dropped (47-50) with “Hooked.” Both songs retained their bullets. The following songs that were on last week’s chart dropped out of the top 50: •Josh Turner’s “All About You” (MCA) •Lindsay Ell’s “Waiting On You” (Stoney Creek) •Rascal Flatts’ “Back To Us” (Big Machine) •Justin Moore’s “Kinda Don’t Care” (Valory) Additionally, Runaway June’s “Wild West” (Wheelhouse) would have charted absent the WMN/iHeart program.

“We know who we are, and so do you,” Paisley said. “We get to go out there with some expectation, and that can be your friend [in terms of] comedy and timing .... We can now make fun of ourselves and you know the context.” That familiarity and track record also brings “a little pressure,” Underwood admitted. “We definitely want to deliver. We’ve had some really great moments and we want to continue and expand on that. We want to be funny, respectful and hope to keep the mo-mentum going through the night. And celebrate, as well. There’s a lot going on in one show.” “We feel the importance of this in country music and we want it to all go right,” Paisley said. “It’s really important that our show promotes unity. We have such a great relationship amongst our-selves as country music performers, but there is no line between us and our fans. We like to think of ourselves as the same people, we’re just the ones on the stage. And so we all are in some ways in the same emotional mindset and we have to experience all of this together.” Tweet Field: While the Vegas shooting wasn’t discussed directly, it wasn’t because of CMA’s quickly rescinded media re-strictions. Paisley addressed his tweet on the matter, and the rapid response: “I so believe in this organization and what it stands for. What I’m impressed with is they did something that they realized very quickly was a mistake. And they changed course as quickly as something with a governing body and a board of directors can .... Switching course and apologizing is so inspiring. It would be great if some other organizations in our country could do that same thing when they feel like they’re wrong.” Turning to memories of their time as hosts, Underwood said they haven’t had any major “uh-oh” moments. “We’ve had some that maybe didn’t execute as well as we thought they would,” she said. “They were funnier in our dressing rooms than they were on the stage. And then, vice versa, were ones we thought were kind of meh, and people just died.” “One of the worst feelings ever was the year they pulled the plug on a bunch of stuff we had planned,” Paisley said. “We were

half-an-hour to show time, sitting in [Underwood’s] dressing room, and the producer Robert Deaton walks in and says, ‘How do we end this monologue?’” Despite a looser sense of how things might play out, Un-derwood says they decided, “Let’s just go.” A parody song put together at the last minute saved the day. Paisley said, “If you try to go back and figure out what year that was, I don’t think you can .... We found so much belief in ourselves, and that’s where the familiarity comes in. [The audience] know what to expect from us, [they] want us to do good. That’s a good feeling.” Funny Or Not: Knowing what’s funny and what isn’t may be more complicated this year. “You have to be sure what you’re doing is in good taste,” Paisley said. “Also, it’s really important we set the tone in the beginning of the show. Before you tell a joke on a show like this, there needs to be a moment. The show is being very well organized, in that sense.” “We all kind of know,” Underwood said of the writing team’s ability to determine what works. “The funny stuff just rises to the top. We are a democracy in that room and I don’t know if any-body’s ever been hell-bent on their crappy joke.” Paisley deadpanned: “Why are you looking at me when you say that? “We have a great group of people around us who will say, ‘I don’t think that one’s worth it,’” he continued. “On the one hand you want to push the envelope a little bit. On the other, we’re here for everyone in that room to feel togetherness. We want the artists to be happy about what we’re joking about and we want every-one to feel like they’re in on it. Carrie is the best barometer ... of what’s a good idea.” End Game: Asked how long they might continue in the role, Paisley said, “It’s like sports. We’ve got a game coming up. We’re going to play the game this Wednesday and then we’ll see. “ SiriusXM’s Storme Warren hosted and asked if Underwood and Paisley could drop a teaser on the assembled radio pros. “The performance of the night is Carrie Underwood,” Paisley said. “I will go ahead and point at the left field wall with that one.” He added, “And she paid me to say that.” –Chuck Aly

NEw COUNTRY AIRCHECk/MEDIABASE REPORTER wEIgHTS

These are the new weights for Country Aircheck/Mediabase Published Panel Reporters and Activator reporters, based on audience estimates from the Spring 2017 Nielsen Audio ratings. Weights for stations in PPM markets use a three-month average of AQH Persons. The weights are calculated using this formula: Market rank is multiplied by 10 and then added to the station’s AQH Persons. A station’s weight is determined by dividing the adjusted AQHP by a number that is 10% of the leading Country station’s AQH (KKGO/Los Angeleses 33,720 adjusted AQHP; and, WQKX/Youngstown’s 9,200 adjusted AQHP for Activator.) This calculation assigns a weight for each panelist on a 1-10 scale. These new weights are effective with this week’s Mediabase Country chart as printed in Country Aircheck.
