Monday APRIL 05, 2021 – WOW! Nathaniel Rateliff got knocked off of his perch at #1, falling to #5. A.J. Fullerton now owns the top spot across the state, and among Colorado releases at RootsMusicReport.com. I would expect the TOP 5 to look different next week when Indie 102.3 stops featuring Lady Gang and Ellsworth.
Last minute note: KRZA (Alamosa) is now airing both hours of the Colorado Playlist, from 2 to 4 pm on Monday.
Coming to EP15 = new music from American Morrisey, Jason Abbott, Darryl Purpose, Big Head Todd and the Monsters

Middle Class Rock Star is a podcast hosted by Andy Sydow. Every week or so I feature a 7 to 8 minute segment featuring a conversation Andy has with some of our scene’s top music makers and industry personalities. This week’s guest is Grammy nominated record producer A.J. FULLERTON.
