Sheryl Crow Celebrates 30th Anniversary Of ‘Tuesday Night Music Club’ With Dolby Atmos Upgrade
Today, A&M/UMe releases a brand-new Dolby Atmos mix of Sheryl Crow’s career-making major-label debut album, August 1993’s Tuesday Night Music Club in celebration of the album’s 30th Anniversary. Propelled by the playfully descriptive Grammy-winning No. 2 hit single “All I Wanna Do,” Tuesday Night Music Club has also been certified as 7x platinum in the United States, and it is Crow’s best-selling album to date.
This stunning Dolby Atmos mix by Mills Logan (Allison Moorer, Keb’ Mo’), enhances the 360-degree breadth of each of Tuesday Night Music Club’s 11 songs. Crow’s breakthrough album, Tuesday Night Music Club ultimately garnered her three Grammy Awards — Best New Artist, Record of the Year (“All I Wanna Do”), and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance (“All I Wanna Do”) — and it helped set in motion the trajectory of an influential and original artist who only keeps on growing with each subsequent release. Listen to Tuesday Night Music Club – 30th Anniversary Edition here.
Produced by Bill Bottrell (Madonna, Shelby Lynne), Tuesday Night Music Club raised the curtain on Crow’s developing prowess as a shrewd, observational lyricist, a highly skilled lead vocalist, guitarist, and pianist, and a hitmaking song composer all rolled into one. In addition to the perpetually catchy “All I Wanna Do,” Tuesday Night Music Club brought the good people of the world songs like the empowering ballad “Strong Enough,” the hopeful wish for rebirth in “Leaving Las Vegas,” the slow-burn declaration of “Run, Baby, Run,” the slinky shrug of “Can’t Cry Anymore,” and the funky promises of “What I Can Do For You.”
Tuesday Night Music Club peaked at No. 3 on the U.S. Billboard 200 and it reached the Top 10 in eight other countries across the globe including the UK, Canada, France, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, New Zealand, and Australia, where it went all the way to No. 1. In addition to its 7x platinum certification in the U.S. by the RIAA, Tuesday Night Music Club has also been certified as 2x platinum in the UK and 3x platinum in Canada, and it has also sold over 5 million copies in Europe alone. While “All I Wanna Do” peaked at No. 2 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, it reached No.1 on the U.S. Adult Contemporary and U.S. Mainstream Top 40 charts. It made the Top 10 in ten other countries, peaking at No. 1 in Australia and Canada. The follow-up single, “Strong Enough,” reached No. 5 on the Hot 100 and hit No. 1 in Canada.
Sheryl Crow is set to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame later this year. This was the first year on the ballot for Crow, who will be inducted in the Performer category. The 38th Annual Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony will occur on Friday, November 3, 2023, at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY. Visit rockhall.com for more information.

Key Drivers
The growth in mobile advertisement spending is one of the key factors driving the market growth. Mobile advertising is considered a popular promotion method due to the widespread usage of tablets and smartphones, the expansion of the internet, and the development of numerous mobile apps. Furthermore, service providers design user-friendly mobile applications to cater to their customers’ needs. In addition, with the increasing adoption of mobile devices and subsequent growth in mobile app downloads, songs and albums are now accessible within apps for streaming and downloading. Moreover, to enhance targeted advertising, users are requested to provide their personal information, enabling vendors to retain a larger customer base. However, it is important to balance the benefits of personalized advertising with user privacy concerns, ensuring that data collection and usage are conducted ethically and transparently. Hence, these factors are expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.
Major Trends
The increase in the adoption of cloud services is a major trend in the music-on-demand market. The popularity of mobile advertising in the music industry is attributed to its ability to offer consumers legal access to online music, and it is being widely adopted by music companies because of its enhanced portability. In addition, subscribers can conveniently access digital content stored on remote servers. Major companies such as Apple, Google, and Amazon place significant emphasis on cloud services, utilizing them as remote lockers to store and manage downloaded music tracks for their users. Numerous vendors in the market are now focusing on integrating lyrics and sing-along features into audio files, providing a unique selling proposition (USP) and setting themselves apart from other competitors. Therefore, this trend among vendors is expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.
Significant Challenges
Free music access to users through modified apps will be a significant challenge restricting the market growth. The modified app allows rooted Android and jailbroken iOS devices to access multiple streaming services for free, which is illegal. These cracked apps can be installed on such devices, enabling users to access paid services without making any payments. As a result, the revenue in the music on-demand market, which largely comes from paid-for services, is impacted negatively. This illegal use of cracked apps affects the sales and profit margins of music streaming service providers. Hence, these illegal apps are expected to restrict market growth during the forecast period.
