Already one of the format’s 15 most played songs, Mumford & Sons’ “The Wolf” this week scored another solid wave of support from alternative radio programmers.
Picked up by 11 Mediabase-monitored stations, it ranks as the alternative format’s most added song.
“The Wolf” is the follow-up to the band’s chart-topping “Believe.” Both appear on new album “Wilder Mind,” which earns the #1 spot on the latest album sales chart.
Other notable options for alternative programmers included Catfish and the Bottlemen’s “Cocoon” (8 adds, 2nd-most added), Elle King’s “Ex’s and Oh’s” (7 adds, 3rd-most added), James Bay’s “Hold Back the River” (6 adds, 4th-most added, tie), Panic at the Disco’s “Hallelujah” (6 adds, 4th-most added, tie) and The Struts’ “Could Have Been Me” (6 adds, 4th-most added, tie).

“Amen” is the follow-up to the band’s #1 hit “Apocalyptic.”
