Americana Media Productions has established itself as one of the top indie Roots Americana radio promotion companies for Self Released and Independent Roots/Americana Music artists involved in the format today. We are part of the Artist Development Co Op, a group of professionals that include ADC Film, a Roots Americana Music video production company making quality music videos for very reasonable prices, Songs with Vision, a film placement company and the newest Roots/Americana Music magazine The Alternate Root.

Roots Americana Music Radio promotion in the Americana format in most cases has been simply working your CD to the 70 stations on the Americana Chart and FAR charts. Many of these stations have only a few hours of programming that includes Americana Roots music. Many of them actually play less then 30 Current Americana songs a week. With that limited airplay, using the internet and video promotion becomes the only viable way to increase your chance to achieve a return on your investment.
No other radio promotions company in this format, provides the kind of video/graphics technology, radio/promotional experience and track record of success for the price.
Together our team of professionals have over 100 years of combined experience in Broadcast Radio, Radio Promotion and major label experience.
