Musicians: Find Your Audience With Online Radio

The biggest obstacle is to make my band reach out an audience. They can’t listen to us without them knowing we exist. So how do we introduce ourselves and our style of music? Online Radio

Most artists set up a MySpace page or a website nowadays. However, If no one knows who you are, having a web site or MySpace page are useless even if these are great tools. How can potential audience reach an independent band?

I started uploading audio files of our songs a few months ago at IMRadio.com, a splendid online radio station that gives artists free radio airplay. Thanks to IM Radio, we now have exposure to a large international audience, we are able to communicate with our fans, and we feel like we are in control of our music. Putting your heart and soul into what you do is very important.

IMRadio.com is very easy to use. We simply signed up for a free account in a couple of minutes, then we began uploading our audio files.

For listeners to use IMRadio is effortless as well. When you go to the web site, there is a drop-down box that lets you choose the genre you would like to listen to. There are many different options! You can just imagine every type of music - even some that you have probably never heard of. Some of the categories include acid jazz, acoustic, adult contemporary, alternative, Americana, country, club music, emo, dance, death metal and grunge.

To allow you to upload some of your songs in broadcast-quality mp3 format, you simply sign up for an account. To search material appropriate to their particular station, radio stations can come along and seek Airplay Direct. Without having to contact you and wait for you to post them a CD, they can download it instantly and get it into their playlists quickly once they have found your music.

By making ourselves available on IMRadio.com, my band and I are now enjoying the positive outcomes. We love hearing from our new fans and it is such a kick to know that so many people are enjoying our tunes.
