The Local Spins Hot Top 5 chart for May looks an awful lot like the Local Spins Hot Top 5 chart for April.
Michigander broke into the Hot Top 5 in May.
The roster of local and regional acts racking up the most spins on WYCE-FM (88.1) for May didn’t change much from the lineup of artists who scored big in April, with bluegrass queen Lindsay Lou continuing to hold onto the top spot with her new album, “Southland.”
Lindsay Lou and her talented band currently are on a U.S. tour outside the state, but will return to Michigan for the Hoxeyville music festival in mid-August. The group also has a series of dates scheduled for Mexico’s Strings & Sol festival in December. Read more about Lindsay Lou online here.
The No. 2 slot for May boasted the only new name on the chart: Midland anthemic popster Michigander, with the appropriately titled “Michigander.”
Following that it was Vox Vidorra’s self-titled final album, Earth Radio’s self-titled debut album, and finally, Lazy Genius’ new “New Moon” EP. Lazy Genius, by the way, opens a sold-out concert by The B-52s at Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park on Friday night (June 8).
