Sounds awesome man!

It's pretty difficult to get radio play without a radio tracker, but it's possible. I would suggest looking up the radio station that you think would be best suited and emailing either the dj's or the programming manager. Your best bet is to actually see if there is a radio show dedicated to requests, or local music. We have a station in Regina called The Wolf and every friday night they have a show called Grindhouse. It's based on requests and they like to play local artists on it. We sent them some of our stuff and had all our facebook and myspace fans request it, and now they play us pretty much every week haha.

It is VERY easy to get your stuff on iTunes though. It costs a little bit of money but not alot, and you can make it back if people buy the song. You will also get suggested on the "genious" or whatever they call it with similar artists to people. That helps spread it out, and you never know who's listening. I would definitely do that if I were you.

If you like the heavy stuff check out the link in my signature. "Reborn" is the song we have on the metal radio shows right now.

Keep rockin' out man!
