GENERAL: The RFA Airplay Chart identifies new releases (albums or singles) with 3 or more spins for the week. Adds to the chart are highlighted in green. (Note: Albums with advance singles in rotation may appear as an add on two separate occasions – first, when the single is added; second, when the album is added to rotation.)
ALL SONGS PLAYED: Click HERE to see All Songs Played. (The RFA Airplay Chart shows spins for albums, in total, rather than by individual song.)
HIDDEN (+) COLUMNS: Some columns will be “hidden” on mobile devices. View the hidden columns by clicking the “+” sign for a given row.
ENTRIES (ROWS) PER PAGE: By default, 50 entries are displayed. Use the SHOW __ENTRIES drop down tool to display fewer, more, or all entries.
SORT: By default, the database is sorted by Spins in descending order (highest number first). You can re-sort the database by Rank (if not hidden), Artist, Title, Label (if not hidden), Spins, or Add (if not hidden) by clicking the heading in any of these columns. Once you’ve clicked the desired column heading, click the arrow beside the heading to sort in ascending (arrow pointing upwards) or descending (arrow pointing downwards) order.
SEARCH: Search by entering text in the SEARCH block. If you filter the database before searching (see below), only the filtered results will be searched.
FILTER: Filter the Artist, Title, or Label (if not hidden) columns by entering text in the blank space provided in the first row beneath the column headings.
LINK BUTTONS: Click “Home” to access the artist’s home page. Click “Phy” to access physical product (CD or vinyl) information for purchase. Click “Dig” to access digital product (MP3, etc.) information for sampling or purchase. (On mobile devices, Link Buttons are “hidden.” Click “+” to access.)

SUPPORT RFA
Preliminary financial results for the first 6 months of 2025 show a 15% decrease in listener donations (our only source of revenue) and a 34% increase in expenses compared to the same period last year. Please note that RFA’s expenses include zero salaries and wages, with the majority of expenses comprising royalties paid to artists/rights holders and the infrastructure (network, computers, etc.) required to deliver the music. Please support RFA by donating at https://fundraising.fracturedatlas.org/radio-free-americana. With no corporate overlords, a little bit goes a long way.
Thanks, cat
HURRICANE HELENE RELIEF EFFORT
Please support Asheville, North Carolina-based MANNA FoodBank with your donation at https://mannafoodbank.org. The fine folks of western Carolina really need our help. (It’s no triviality that the region contributes mightily to the music we love.) Thank you.
