About

 

 

 

How do emerging artists get their music to campus radio and get a shot at being added in to rotation? From submitting materials and one-sheets, to follow-ups and tracking spins, this workshop will cover it all. The session will also provide artists and artist representatives an opportunity to talk with key radio station staff while learning more about the always-important medium of radio.
