There is no better way to kick off the music year then with a trip to CRS (Country Radio Seminar) in Nashville. Even if you’re not a country act you also find music programmers from all formats visiting Music City to take a taste of what’s to come. Not too many years back a few […]
We find it almost impossible to believe that we are coming to the end of another year. This one seems to have gotten away from us all too fast and now we get set for the arrival of 2014. As we look back at this rather fast paced year, it is also time to look […]
It’s hard to believe that it’s already that time of year once again. The Christmas shopping will begin and the air will be filled with Holiday music. For recording artists and bands that want to stretch out, getting a holiday song produced and released to radio might be just the ticket. Holiday music has become […]

There are so many things to be optimistic about with respect to the underdogs of the industry that we are happy to report the “new music revolution” is in full swing. Just recently we have witnessed the band Lumineers break through on a small label all the way to the top of the charts. As […]
