Listen to new and emerging music from Ontario with Fresh Picks on Country 105!
We’ll choose a Fresh Picks feature artist, tell you a bit about them, and play their song twice a day for three weeks! This is your chance to hear the great music being produced in our community and throughout Ontario – and your chance to have everyone hear your music.
If you’d like to hear your music on Country 105, we’d love to hear from you!
Please follow these instructions when submitting your music:
- Fresh Picks features Ontario based artists. If you’re an artist from outside Ontario, please don’t use this form – instead, you can submit the music to our music director, Julia Manina at jmanina [at] bayshorebroadcasting [dot]ca
- We don’t accept covers of other songs – only original tracks.
- It is your responsibility to submit a CLEAN radio-friendly track (no swearing). If a track has foul language, we are not permitted to air it. We will not edit tracks to make them acceptable for radio play.
- You should only submit ONE track. If you are submitting a physical CD, please indicate your best single (the one you want us to play).
- Country 105 reserves the right to play any submitted music on the radio, in whole or in part, at our discretion. Submitted music may not be played at all, or it may be played frequently. If you would like us to not play music that you have previously submitted for any reason, please let us know immediately.
- Due to volume of submissions, we’re unable to reply to all the submissions.
- This feature airs on three of our Country stations – Country 93 / Owen Sound, Country 104.9 / Goderich and Country 105 / Shelburne. You don’t need to submit your song to all three websites – you can just submit it to one of them and, if the song is chosen, it will air on all three stations.
