How to get your Blues 'n Roots music onto radio airplay.
Blues and Roots music of Australia is at an all time high and now is the time to get heard… not only will your song be heard by all the stations in the cities and countries listed – but all radio stations have agreed to fill out a feedback form and we will chart the music played so you can track your success.

BAR Promotions has discovered a fabulous way to help the Blues Music Industry in Australia. Ideally, every eight to twelve weeks a new cd will be distributed to over 353 blues friendly radio stations in Australia, New Zealand, USA, Canada, UK, Europe and Asia. The distribution is growing rapidly and we anticipate the amount of cd distribution to develop further.

Why Promote to Radio?
You need to look at the bigger picture. With radio airplay of your track/s, not only do you develop greater recognition and retail support, but the more your track is played on air the more this affects the music charts and your royalty payments.

You will need to make sure that your song is registered with APRA.

How It Works
You provide us with your professionally mastered track on cd and fill out our promotional agreement contract and send to BAR Promotions along with your bio and retail contact details, and your payment of $675 for the songs inclusion. Once we have received your track our production team will confirm with you that your track is suitable for inclusion. If in the event your track is not suitable, then all monies will be returned.

Please note: CDs will not be able to be returned unless a self addressed, postage paid, cd appropriate packaging is included with your submission.

If you have any queries regarding production then please email Jillian at promotions@bluesandrootspromotions.com or telephone = direct line (08) 95861637

What is Included?
Your tracks inclusion on our promotional cds includes our professional service, production of cds, national and global postage, feedback service and gst. We also include an information sheet on our BAR Featured Artists in our distribution.

All you need to do is provide us with your professionally mastered cd single/album, short bio and contact details for inclusion on the professionally presented cd insert, to ensure that radio announcers have all the relevant information readily at hand.
