The
Cumberland Trio receiving airplay on more than 600 radio stations
around the world!
We are
proud to update you that the Trio's music from all three of our
CDs- 1964 RCA, 2001 Reunion Concert (live) & 2004 Back Where
We Began (live)- is receiving heavy airplay on over 600 major FM
radio stations around the world, and the list continues to grow!
About 1/3 of the stations are FM's all over the USA, as well as
89 from Australia alone! Also we are receiving airplay from at least
one station in EVERY country in both eastern and western Europe,
as well as throughout Canada and other countries scattered throughout
the World. The word is REALLY spreading!!
This
has been made possible by a wonderful service for Independent label
music like ours called RadioDirectX (www.radiodirectx.com)
based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. RDX faciliates over 5500 FM radio
stations around the World receiving extensive samples of Indy label
artists' music of many genres, and the stations then emailing the
artists they like, requesting CDs for airplay on their stations.
Our genre categories are folk, bluegrass, Gospel, blues, Americana,
reggae, classical and children's music.
There
are about 1050 stations on RDX list that play these categories,
and to this point we have over half of them playing The Cumberland
Trio! Thanks to RadioDirect X and all of you, our fans, friends,

It has a funny punch line on the chorus and a happy ending.

songs that Jerre will sing on Songs From The Fiery
Gizzard. Barbara will perform two or three, Holly
