The Best of the Best in 2014
For the past year, SoundExchange has released specialty charts to coincide with holidays and events celebrated around the country (Valentine's DayMichael Jackson's BirthdayHalloween). And while SoundExchange will continue to release specialty charts in the future, 2014 brought the opportunity to leverage the rich and plentiful data SoundExchange collects from more than 2,500 digital radio services.

2014 Rewind
SoundExchange had another banner year in 2014. And with all that took place and everything we accomplished, it would be too long to sum up with just words. So instead, SoundExchange has put together a highlight film that will take you back through 2014. Check it out by clicking on the image below.

2014 Rewind with Play Button

World, Meet Oh Honey
Chances are, if you heard any popular music in the 1990s or 2000s, you are aware of the bands Fall Out Boy and Eve 6. And if you are a big fan of either of these groups, you probably know that the names were based on characters from TV shows (The Simpsons and The X-Files, respectively). So what does duo Mitchy Collins and Danielle Bouchard, who make up the band "Oh Honey," have in common with the Fall Out Boy and Eve 6? Well other than the fact that they got their name from the Katy Perry character on the now wrapped How I Met Your Mother, they are also on the rise - and fast. Their 2013 debut single "Be Okay" took off and propelled the band into the spotlight.
