The Tenors TFFs CBC Radio Play Challenge: Part One: Put Your Mouth Where Your Heart Is!

The Tenors TFFs CBC Radio Play Challenge: Part One: Put Your Mouth Where Your Heart Is!

Okay my fellow crazy-for-the-tenors-fans here is my challenge to you all to show our guys how much we really love them by getting their new album, Lead With Your Heart some serious time on the radio. This is totally a volunteer deal, sharing the Tenor love and leading with our hearts. We’ll start with Canada, then the US, then, break it wide open internationally!

·       To get us started what follows is some national contact info for CBC Radio shows and hosts. I’ll follow-up with a list of commercial Canadian FM contact info by regions in a few days!

·       TFFs in US border markets like Detroit can join in this first push if you get CBC on your FM dial!

·       All you US fans should also be able to get CBC radio via the internet www.cbc.ca/radio CBC Radio 2 is what you are looking for please check it out and let me know if I’m right,

·       US fans feel free to help me compile regional US info by messaging me or commenting and we’ll time a push for the US launch

·       Do we have a Francophone TFF who can tackle that market? My French is way too crummy!

Remember, the bigger market penetration in your local area the more often the guys will be able to come to town in person!

Guidelines

·       The Tenors prefer their genre described as “pop meets classical” or “contemporary classical” over the term “popera”

·       Keep the request simple and polite

·       Focus on the suggested songs for now, we’ll talk Juno/Grammy nomination for the whole disc later ;)

·       “Like” or “follow” the radio station accounts, they’ll take our requests more seriously

·       Find other Facebook page and/or Twitter account of your local area FM adult contemporary, classical and Christian radio stations, message me the info and I’ll compile it

·       Post/tweet requests to the station(s) to play either “Forever Young” “World Stand Still” , “Lead With Your Heart” or “Nessun Dorma”(classical) or “Amazing Grace” (Christian stations) or “Journee d’innocence” (francophone stations)

·       If you are suggesting “Forever Young” include a link to the You Tube studio video http://youtu.be/9E6-AYce-_M

·       View Tenors videos on YouTube as often as you can get away with it! Media outlets pay attention to # of views

·       Repeat your requests once a week until we achieve radio wave domination!

This and upcoming info will also be posted on my personal blog http://carolynneciceri.blogspot.ca
