Chris Dalla Riva's Uncharted Territory: Book Launch

Come celebrate the release of Chris Dalla Riva's first book at Hoboken's Mile Square Theater on November 14, 2025. The evening will open with some jokes by comedian John Franklin followed by an exciting conversation between Chris Dalla Riva and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Walt Hickey about all things pop music

After spending years listening to every number one hit in history, musician and data analyst Chris Dalla Riva decided to write a data-driven history of popular music. During that journey, he unearthed many unexpected insights:

• Hit songs in the 1950s were regularly about gruesome death
• It takes twice as many people to write a hit today as it did in the 1960s
• The pop charts were rigged in the 1970s
• TikTok has made artists more anonymous than ever before

Come to this exclusive event to learn more about Dalla Riva's fascinating listening journey. For more information on Chris, check out his popular newsletter, . If you still haven't purchased his book, grab a copy wherever books are sold.
