Thanks to all of Mike’s fans streaming, sharing, and liking, Mike Kuster broke into the Top 30 National and International Chart according to ReverbNation!
I know I shared about country radio earlier, but I just also got the charts for Digital Country Music showing streaming charts!
This humbling chart puts “The COVID Floor” ABOVE some big names in Country Music including Taylor Swift, Jameson Rodgers, Luke Combs, Jimmie Allen, and Brad Paisley!
“The COVID Floor” had almost 30,000 streams as of Friday on Spotify alone! That’s fantastic!
Keep streaming, requesting, and sharing “The COVID Floor” on digital and radio!
Thank you all so much!
Thanks to all of my friends for requesting “The COVID Floor” on Country Radio!
This week STS lists my first studio single as an “Up & Coming Song” on Country Radio!
I am so excited and grateful! “The COVID Floor” is tied with a list of great established artists who’s songs have started to get airplay this past week. That’s a great feat for an independent artist’s first song with no industry backing.
The airplay and digital streams in the United Kingdom, France, Austria, and throughout Europe amaze me! To be so universally supported by Country Music Fans around the world humbles me beyond words.
So, I end by saying, “Thank You!”
Mike’s team introduced a new t-shirt design!
All products are 15% Off through 5 p.m. Central Time on February 17, 2021.
All of you reading this, sharing my music, and requesting air play of “The COVID Floor” are making a HUGE impact! I am so grateful for all of your support. Not only do I recognize and feel the love, but others are noticing it, also.
Airplay and streams are up for “The COVID Floor” all over the world! The Lyric Video for “The COVID Floor” is being picked up by music television services, and views on various online platforms has now surpassed 30,000!
Pandora offers a tool called “Next Big Sound” that lets you see how your music is streaming on their service and how your overall social media presence is doing. I logged on today to see this:
“Mike Kuster has PASSIONATE audience engagement. Mike Kuster performed best on Facebook, seeing an average of 733 talking about this per day over the last 30 days, which is 733x the expected activity . . .
Audience Engagement captures the relationship between recent fan activity and overall audience size. Next Big Sound identifies four levels of audience engagement: Occasional, Moderate, Strong, and Passionate.”

Passionate is exactly how I would describe all of you! I spoke with a radio promoter today who noted that you all are proving the industry insiders wrong, because you are showing your love for country music that is being made independently and without corporate influence.
Every stream, share, comment and message I receive means so much to me! So, I want to thank all of you for spreading the love of my music!
Google has moved its music service to YouTube Music.
You can listen to all of Mike’s acoustic originals and “The COVID Floor” on his YouTube Music Profile.
Just another way to listen to Mike’s music!
Thanks for all of the plays, shares, follows, and likes!
The charts are looking great!
So grateful to Steve’s Country Road Show for including my song, “The COVID Floor” on their playlist this week!
Steve Taggart produces his weekly show in Hayes, England where he also works for a local radio station, 91.8 Hayes FM.
I am loving all the support for this from my friends in the U.K. and around the world! Check out Steve’s weekly show.
Have you been following “The COVID Sessions” on various social media platforms or Mike’s web site?
During 2020, Mike posted an episode every night of either a cover song or an original song. In 2021, Season 2 of “The COVID Sessions” began sharing an episode every Wednesday night at 7:30 p.m. These Season 2 episodes are longer as Mike performs a few songs acoustically from his own music and covers of his favorites.
So, tune in each week and share with your fellow Country Music friends!
