Attention bands: Radio for Indies offers airplay

Radio for Indies is offering indie bands the chance to be heard! Bands hailing from Southwest Michigan can now have their songs in rotation on the radio for a small fee.

Geno Hinton of Radio for Indies states, "We hope to bring attention to the music scene here in southwest Michigan. We hope that when people hear a song that they like that they will go out and buy the music."

Artists can submit their MP3 to be played for a fee of $20. Once submitted, the track will be played three times per day, seven days per week. The songs will be rotated so that each track has peak radio time.

To receive airplay, bands must be indie, be from southwest Michigan, and fall into the Rock, Metal, Alternative, Hip Hop, Rap, or R & B genres.

"We [Radio for Indies] see an opportunity to go after a resource of music that is untapped and under appreciated by local radio stations," said Henton.
