On Sunday night, country’s increasingly mainstream appeal was on display during the Academy of Country Music Awards on CBS, which last year had 15.5 million viewers, its biggest audience in 15 years, according to Nielsen.
昨天CBS的鄉村音樂觀眾號稱1千五百萬人觀賞
經濟不景氣是全球性,包觀音樂,聽的人多買的人不對等,
反觀鄉村音樂卻毅力不搖,反而有增加的局勢,在美國畢竟這是國樂,

Country has been one of radio’s biggest success stories over the last decade. While the number of country stations has remained relatively stable over that time, at about 2,100, country’s share of the audience has been gradually increasing, with about a 15 percent share among people 12 and up, according to Nielsen. Broadcasters have been keen to capture that audience; last month, for example, Clear Channel, the country’s largest radio company, held its first iHeartRadio Country Festival in Austin, Tex., with stars like Eric Church, Lady Antebellum and Hunter Hayes.
