Every year, Finney Media Research tests library songs from CCM artists with listeners across the United States. Listeners decide this ranking, from research we’ve gathered in multiple markets.
We thought it would be fun for you to see the Top Five CCM groups from our recent research. If you’re playing them, terrific! If you’re not, perhaps it’s time for a discussion about playing them.
Top Five CCM Groups
- Casting Crowns
- Mercy Me
- Third Day
- Big Daddy Weave
- Elevation Worship
On the strength of strong testing on older and newer songs, Casting Crowns and Mercy Me still lead the way by a wide margin over the next three. And Third Day at no. 3? Yes. They are still worth testing and might surprise you if you do (for example, Soul On Fire).
