ABOUT
THE MUSIC STATION

The Album Station is a locally-programmed station, broadcasting throughout the Champlain Valley and beyond, that has the freedom to play the music you want to hear, featuring over 6000 tracks of the best music from over the past 40 years. 
  The Album Station is what FM radio used to be known for: an alternative to top 40 chart-driven programming. We have one of the largest playlists in the country, because we play tracks many other stations have abandoned, due to corporate programming and market research surveys. 
  At The Album Station we combine familiar hits with album cuts, striking a balance between new and old rock songs, R & B, blues, folk and jazz. We showcase artists' creativity, exemplifying their particular skill or talent.  
  We favor cuts off albums you love, but haven't heard in years, going deeper into the less commercial tracks. We play music you want to hear that you won't hear anywhere else.

LISTENER SUPPORT ~ $$$$$

Hi Musicheads, So far we have commitments for $100.00 a month, we need at least $250 a month to get back to streaming radio. Our goal is to find $25 and $50 a month sponsors to make this happen.
 
You're probably thinking: What will I get for this?
(besides making a whole lot of people around the world happy).
 
 You will get at least one advertising spot a day at the approximate time of day you choose. If you don't have a business, it could be a business of your choice..... A friend's business, your favorite place to eat or, we could say your name as a sponsor.
Now, how much fun could that be? Your name.....and then a super cool Rock & Roll tune. You would be "Almost Famous"!!!!!
