In 2005 were started and ‘Unsigned Artist’ segment every week. With much talent in Los Angeles Mark and Brian asked aspiring musicians to send in their CD”s for a chance to come in and play live on the radio.
We started getting swamped and I was the one that listen to every CD, weeding out those that I thought the boys might say ‘yes, bring them in.’ You have to realize this very risky because what we heard on CD might not be what we heard when these artists performed on the air. We basically took a chance that they would not have thousands of listener switching the dial.
I remember listening to some songs by Cindy Alexander and thought, this is pretty good, but would Mark and Brian concur. They loved it, Cindy came in to perform was a hit and later told me that after appearing on the show she sold a ton of CD’s. Cindy is still making music, so if you like what you hear check out her website.
