Tuesday Top 30: June 24, 2025

Well... summer's here. While we wait for this "heat dome" to dissipate, there's always great music to check out. Shane Michael Boose, otherwise known as Sombr, ecstatically moves into the No.1 slot this week. The Black Keys and Papa Roach are solid Top 10 entries, and we've got new tracks this week from Balu Brigada, Ax and The Hatchetmen, and Sugar Bones. In the Rock and Roll TARDIS, go back in time for former chart-toppers from Jack Johnson, U2, and The Hooters - who once played the Gannon "Audi" back in 1985. Stay cool...
