===============
Predictable given its buzz and guaranteed airplay support from the iHeartRadio “On the Verge” program, Chris Janson’s “Buy Me a Boat” ranks as this week’s most added song at country radio.
According to Mediabase, the peer-endorsed track earned adds from 35 monitored stations this week.
While the song is already being spotlighted by iHeartMedia, its official impact is technically scheduled for next week.
The spring of 2015 has been a fruitful one for Janson. In addition to scoring immense buzz–and a prominent iTunes position–for “Buy Me a Boat,” the singer-songwriter also inked a deal with Warner Music Nashville.
The iHeartRadio “On the Verge” selection and strong weekly add count provide more cause for celebration.
A more detailed adds breakdown will be issued Monday evening.
