KCRW’s Top 30 chart: August 5–11, 2024
It’s official, we’re obsessed with Jack White’s blistering 2024 LP, “No Name.”
By Marion Hodges • • 3 min readIf you thought the dominance of Jack White’s No Name on KCRW airwaves might be a blip, the higher spin counts this week say otherwise. Elsewhere in the top five, Father John Misty’s massive leap from spot twenty last week to spot two this week warrants the eyeballs emoji. Plus, The Smile made quite a splashy debut with their Jack White-esque, vinyl-first approach to releasing their new single: “Don’t Get Me Started” / “The Slip.”
New and notable: Aussie jangle-poppers (and Global Beat Australia alums) Quivers find themselves in that elusive no. 30 spot via their freshly released LP, Oyster Cuts. Will the heat from their warm guitar tones keep rising? Tune in next week to find out.
