Easter Is Almost Here, And So Are the Sales!

Retailers never miss the opportunity to take advantage of a holiday to have a sale. Next up on the calendar is Easter, less than two weeks away. There will be church services, colored eggs, and chocolate bunnies everywhere, but also sales, sales, and more sales. Folks will be filling up stores, restaurants, and malls, cashing in on all the great deals. This will also be the beginning of Easter vacation for many schools. Families will be out enjoying themselves while music plays overhead everywhere they go. If you want to ensure your priority music is playing while this increased opportunity for exposure presents itself, now is the time to get it into What's In-Store Music. Just hit the red submission button and let us take care of the rest.

Out & About with Kelsey Hart

On March 28th, 2025 at Grizzly Rose in Denver, CO

If you haven't yet caught Curb recording artist Kelsey Hart live, you're missing out on one of country music's fastest-rising stars. On March 28th, he brought the house down at the iconic Grizzly Rose in Denver, delivering a night packed with powerhouse vocals, heartfelt lyrics, and the kind of energy that keeps fans coming back for more.

Currently out on tour, Kelsey is proving why he's one to watch. Whether you were two-stepping at the Grizzly Rose or listening to his latest hit "Gone With The Wind" overhead while shopping, this is an artist making waves in all the right places. Don't miss your chance to see him live-grab your tickets now! A big thank you to Giovanna Randolph and the fine folks at Curb for bringing us this terrific artist.

Have a great week,

Scott Emerson
