North Hampshire performance artists have new opportunities!

The launch of Radio Basingstoke gives north Hampshire bands and artists a new opportunity to showcase their work.

They have the chance of having a half-hour programme dedicated to their work on a show hosted by Radio Basingstoke's Station Manager, Lee Williams. Lee will interview the artist(s) and play their promotional CD's on air; the programme will air three times over a two week period at different times of the day.

The CD will also feature as our "Artist of the Week" on our new website to be launched shortly.

Radio Basingstoke is a community radio, at the heart of our local community, and this is part of our mission. During our early days, until such time as we obtain sponsorship for some programmes, we will ask for a contribution of £200 from our featured artists. Once we obtain sponsorship then there will be no charge!
