Sales are through this web site by secure Credit Card purchasing, UK retail outlets, and our artistes’ ‘live’ performances. Overseas retail outlet sales are achieved through licence and distribution arrangements with other record labels, currently covering Holland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and South Korea.
Since our launch in late 1999, our Marketing Director Anthea Green has established significant radio airplay for our artistes across regional and national stations in the UK, and internationally including Ireland, Germany, Holland, Italy, Spain, the USA, Australia, South Korea, the Philippines, Uruguay, Yugoslavia and Hong Kong, plus most of Europe via satellite radio.
Magazine reviews include the UK’s Southern Country, Mojo, Linedancer, ‘Q’, and Country Music and More. UK television appearances by our artiste Jon Dean Foster followed his 2001 ‘UK Country Rock Album of the Year’ award for the debut album ‘Born Survivor’, the title single from which was re-mixed in Nashville USA for the USA radio market, enjoying cross-state airplay during 2002.
Our credibility and our commitment to targetted promotion has led to our promotion services being used by other artistes and labels since 2002.
