AC

Adult Contemporary

 

Hot or Not! The Lund Consultants are masters of female-friendly AC, the Adult Contemporary format that powers high ratings and higher revenue! Gold-based, Mainstream, Bright AC, or Hot AC – each market is unique; your AC must be competitively programmed to garner tune-in and grab listeners by their ears. 

 

There’s a blurring of the lines between Hot AC and Top 40/CHR. Lady Gaga, Kelly Clarkson, and Taylor Swift defy format labels. Crossover music shortens the lifespan of songs that have stayed on current status until they have burned to a crisp. TV shows that feature new artists break music for radio. Bright AC will also play more of the Hot AC songs – and vice versa – as artists like Colbie Caillat, Daughtry, John Mayer, and Lifehouse appeal to broad portions of the adult female spectrum. Tempo becomes more of a necessity.  

 

Lund programmed AC delivers results with adults…and clients have enjoyed ratings impact from Los Angeles to New York City, and lots of cities in between – Colorado Springs, Ft. Collins, Missoula, Winchester, Dayton, McAllen-Brownsville – and American Forces Radio and TV worldwide.
