Make The Most of Your Promo Module

The Promo Module is your window to your listeners & fans. It is the first thing they see when they hear your music and their first chance to interact with your artist profile. A well presented module can generate a good vote and perhaps a Facebook like or a visit to your website. There are six different modules available and they're all geared to fit your current campaign needs. Below we'll give you a quick overview of the different modules and how you can make the most of them. 

Keep in mind that whichever module you use, your profile picture is probably the single most important element of your presentation.

Default Promo
This module promotes the voting mechanism of Radio Airplay (i.e. thumbs up). Use it to build a strong fanbase on Airplay, but also show listeners that they can connect with you on Facebook & Twitter as well as iTunes, Amazon, CDBaby and Tunecore.

Facebook Likes
Most listeners have a Facebook account - and they spend a lot of time there! This module will connect your Radio Airplay fans to the most popular social destination on the web so you can keep them engaged with your music, new releases and concerts.
 *Remember that you need a connected Facebook page (not a personal profile) to use this module.

Tour Promo
This module is specifically designed to promote your tour schedule, and you can optimize it by targeting your plays to the area where you're performing. If you use premium targeting you can make sure each and every spin is directed to a potential ticket buyer.

Video Promo
This module gives listeners a fast, easy way to watch your YouTube videos. YouTube links are really easy to share on social media and many listeners post videos on their own or friends' walls. Connect your video and let listeners spread it to help you create buzz about your new single or album release.

Store Promo
This module shows listeners where they can buy your music - with smart icons they simply click the store logo and it takes them to your storefront. You can connect to iTunes, Amazon, CDBaby and Tunecore, or if you use another distributor or sell music directly, you can add a custom link. You can even enhance your offer by adding a creative "custom message" that will catch listeners attention.

Custom Flyer
This flyer gives you total visual control of your message - you design the banner and provide a destination link to drive listeners to your web page, Facebook page etc.
 *Keep in mind this flyer will significantly decrease your fan conversion ratio since the voting mechanism (thumbs up/down) is removed.


These are the most essential ways to use your promo modules. You can easily switch between modules to make them fit your current promotion needs. And remember - the best way to find what works best for you  is to experiment with the different alternatives.

Airplay Band of The Month: Kelly & The Hermanos

Welcome to the "Underwater Western" world pioneered by Kelly and The Hermanos. Founded in 2011, this Brooklyn-based group of musicians brings a modern interpretation of great old western music. The result: A refreshing alt-country experience. Take the plunge! 

Describe Kelly & The Hermanos sound in one sentence?

We try to bring the sound of the great old country western artists into our own world- a dreamy, nostalgic, and bubbly sound we call "Underwater Western".

When was Kelly & The Hermanos formed and where?

As good friends and musical collaborators from Berklee College of Music, we locked ourselves in a basement studio in the winter of 2011. We came out of there as a band, and went on to record our debut album a few months later.

Name three people who have influenced your music, and tell us why? Living or dead.

1. Gram Parsons & the Flying Burrito Brothers. They really pioneered the sounds of alt-country in the early 70s, and as some of our favorite music we are hoping to develop this sound in a modern era.
2. Tammy Wynette - The Queen of Country Music, Tammy's beautiful and heartbreaking voice is what country music is all about.
3. Yim Yames & My Morning Jacket - Yim's got the voice and the band's ethereal rock has influenced us to look beyond traditional structures.

How do you connect with fans and get them involved in your music?

Our Facebook page is a big one right now. Being an independent band, we try to encourage new fans to ‘Like’ our page so that they can stay connected, as we keep the page current  with new show announcements, photos, videos, music, reviews, etc.- It’s a great way to stay in touch. We also always set up a mailing list at our shows, so that new fans can know about upcoming shows. We reach out to fans on Jango and encourage them to visit our website and Facebook page, so we can stay connected with our band outside of the Jango world. 

What do you like the most about Jango Airplay?

Getting our music played around the world! It’s the coolest thing to see that our music is heard by listeners tuning into Jango from countries like Taiwan, the UK, The Netherlands, Israel and of course all over the US! These are all listeners and fans that would never have otherwise been exposed to our music if it wasn’t for Jango Airplay. Another thing I love about Jango Airplay is that they let the artist or band actually pick their listeners! We decide what stations (based on similar artist choices we are asked to make) will play our music on jango.com. This is truly the best thing, because if we select similar artists targets wisely, we will get heard by listeners that are already likely to enjoy our music! Jango Airplay also provides us with really helpful reports and play statistics, and allows us to connect with our listeners and fans.

Is there any recent project you'd like to share with us? Tell us about it.

We recently released our debut album, Underwater Western. We’re now getting ready to spend the next few months touring to promote our album and also working on new material for 2013. Be on the look out!

Are you guys playing live and do you have any shows coming up soon?

We're playing a special all night Halloween show at the famed Rodeo Bar. Wednesday 10/31. Rodeo Bar 375 3rd Avenue  New York, NY 10016
