“Downstairs” also holds at its high so far of No. 9 on the all-rock-format, audience-based Rock & Alternative Airplay chart with 3.3 million audience impressions in the week ending Dec. 18, up 5% week-over-week, according to Luminate. The track is his first top 10 on the ranking since “Hallucinogenics,” which led for two weeks.
In addition to its rock radio airplay, “Downstairs” has also made inroads at adult pop.
“Downstairs” is the lead single from A Quiet and Harmless Living, Maeson’s third studio album, released in September. The set has earned 18,000 equivalent album units to date.
