CIMS WEEKLY CHARTS: WEEK ENDING 1/13/22

Hi Everyone,
 
This year marks fifteen years since we all came up with a crazy little idea to celebrate record stores in a big way.  So, it seems that the 2022 Record Store Day Ambassador should also be a go big or go home moment, and this morning kicked things off as we announced our first global RSD ambassador.

Taylor has shown lots of love and support to the indies, especially over the past few years, so this only makes sense.

THE RECORD STORE DAY AMBASSADOR, TAYLOR'S VERSION

Watch for the Official List of RSD Releases, coming soon.

"I’m very proud to be this year's Global Ambassador for Record Store Day. The places where we go to browse and explore and discover music new and old have always been sacred to me. Record stores are so important because they help to perpetuate and foster music-loving as a passion. They create settings for live events. They employ people who adore music thoroughly and purely. Those people and shops have had a rough few years and we need to support these small businesses more now than ever to make sure they can stay alive, stay eccentric, and stay individual. It’s been a true joy for me to watch vinyl sales grow in the past few years and we, the artists, have the fans to thank for this pleasant surprise. Happy Record Store Day, everyone! Stay safe out there."


Stay Tuned, and here are the charts,
Andrea
