Radio Promotion by Art Menius

I provide promotion of recordings to folk and bluegrass radio for appropriate recordings using a negotiated fee based on how much work done and by what media. Service can be filtered by budget, location, the amount of work you are willing to do, or genre to fit your goals and budget. More info below and, at more detail, in

Art Menius Radio is based on two basic concepts:

  • You can afford radio promotion or assistance
  • You can’t afford not to have radio promotion support, if only a consultation

Art Menius Offers Radio Promotion Services that are:

  • Customized for each client across abroad range of services, genre, geographic area, and budget.
  • One-stop including printing, mailing, downloads, streaming, and lots more.
  • Inclusive of color laser printing and mailing at the very best rates, if desired, as well download, AirPlay Direct, and streaming hosting.
  • Provided across diverse folk and roots genre and charts with a goal of maximizing total airplay
  • Offered in DIY versions for those on a limited budget.

I can scale from $50 for two hours of consultation to $2500 for Cadillac service. Between those two ends of service and fees, I can develop different levels of hybrid professional-DIY solutions or full service. That includes assistance to artists desiring to promote their own project.
