USA - Internet radio broadcaster,
RadioDevil.com, has announced the creation of
IndieArtistRadio.com to coincide with
their newfound independence from parent company Devil Entertainment. To better
serve the independent music and film community, Devil Entertainment will remain
an Independent Film company and the RadioDevil Group will focus solely on
Independent Music.
James Wilson, CEO and President of RadioDevil Group., assures the same quality
music and content that has brought RadioDevil.Com to its success as an
Independent Radio Network, and adds that this is a great opportunity to expand
the Music Industry and focus on the best music being produced today while
maintaining our overwhelming support for indie artists worldwide.
Indie Artist Radio/RadioDevil Group. has wasted no time in following up on their
commitment to continue their support of indie artists after their separation
from the Devil Entertainment Group. Earlier this week The RadioDevil Group.
announced their newest release, BandJams.com,
scheduled for full release on May 1, 2004.
BandJams.com is expected to become a showcase for indie musicians worldwide with
musicians creating their own four-page website offering band news, bios, album
sales (directly from the artist or record label) and MP3 downloads and streaming
audio. Director of Artist Affairs for the RadioDevil Group, Christopher LaGrone,
said about BandJams.Com, “We have had an overwhelming response to this newest
project, by the RadioDevil Group, with dozens of artist inquiries and
pre-registrations within just the first few days of announcing our May 1, 2004
release”. Mr. LaGrone added, “I suppose this new project has been
compared to the likes of MP3.Com, but there are two major differences here.
BandJams will be not be flooded with advertisements, making it much easier to
navigate directly to the artist’s pages. In addition there will be absolutely no
advertisements on any of the artist’s pages. These pages belong to the artists,
not BandJams.Com. Secondly BandJams.Com is not for sale and never will be. I
believe that the RadioDevil Group has a greater interest in the success of indie
musicians then the profitability of selling out.”
The newly formed RadioDevil Group. also has begun their own web hosting and
design exclusively for indie musicians. This project was developed for the
special needs that musicians have to compete in the Internet Market; most of
these needs are not realized by your average hosting company. IAR Hosting is
maintained by an indie music company and knows first hand what artists need in a
web hosting and design company. All of IAR Hosting clients are eligible for free
broadcasting of their gigs via IndieArtistRadio.com; a huge savings on
BandJams.Com, and free, regular broadcasting on one of the Internet’s fastest
growing radio broadcasting stations.
The RadioDevil Group. has named Debbie Mahony as one of their new partners.
Debbie has over thirteen years experience in the music industry in the area of
music sales, distribution, print music/publishing and artist management. “I
first came to know RadioDevil through representing independent recording artist,
Larry Edoff, and was instantly impressed with the organization as a whole and
their commitment to the indie artist. I am honored to become a part of the
RadioDevil family and very excited about the new developments. Indie Artist
Radio, BandJams and IAR Hosting will provide the indie artist with the tools,
resources, support and exposure needed to succeed in the independent music
industry.”
