Only on the air since December 2005, internet station Coastal Radio is moving up in popularity. Out of 320 jazz stations on Live 365's network, Coastal Radio is currently # 43. The station plays well known artists and also features lesser known musicians. The most popular countries listening are the US, Canada, Japan, United Kingdom, Mexico, Czech Republic, Spain, Germany, Colombia, Netherlands, S. Korea, Sweden, Latvia, Thailand, Greece, Italy and Poland. Coastal Radio is on 24/7 with CD quality sound, world-wide.
For those not familiar with internet radio, it streams behind your other applications and is perfect for background music while you're on the computer at work or at home. Two big advantages to the internet format are that the name of the song and artist appear as the song is playing, as well as info on where to buy the CD or the individual song. This easily allows you see the name of the song you like and know who the artist is. Tuning in is free and a high speed connection is recommended.
Artists who would like to be considered for airplay are encouraged listen to the programs and determine if their music fits the stations format. If it does, email [email protected].
