About me
Thanks for visiting my profile. Besides being a 'normal' believer, I'm also member of the crew of Talentcast, the weekly radioprogram about Sellaband. Members of our radioshow www.talentcast.nl can vote for their favorite track of our weekly playlist. Check also the information in my blog.
Want to become a member? Leave your e-mail address by PM to me or my partner in crime, Johan Jongerius: http://www.sellaband.com/belie ver/johan-jongerius/
Btw, my video is from Second Person: http://www.sellaband.com/secon dperson/ If you like it, buy or download the album at my shop :)
And I am asking you a favour: in my hometown there is a famous venue that programmes international signed and unsigned artists. The bad newzzz is that the local community council is thinking of sizing down the money for the international club for pop underground Vera (http://www.vera-groningen.nl/). Vera is in the same line as Paradiso in Amsterdam, but a bit more alternative. Some of the Sellaband acts already were on stage in Vera and I sure would like to see more :)
The good newzzz is that YOU can help by signing a petition to say NO to this: http://www.ipetitions.com/peti tion/vera/ (remove spaces in URL). The text is also in English, so please check it out. Final decision is made in november.
Thanks in advance!

More airplay for Sellaband!
Last august four believers started a weekly radioshow about Sellaband: TalentCast. The show was solely hosted by radio Sunshine LIVE. Something that started as a little initiative is now ready to make ‘The Great Leap Forward’. During the last months the crew of TalentCast worked behind the scenes on getting the program more interactive by building a website. We also teamed up with other radiostations (inside and outside the community) to get more airplay for SAB music as a whole.
New broadcasting times on Sunshine LIVE
We our happy and proud to inform you that TalentCast attracts more and more listeners on Sunshine LIVE (Groningen, Netherlands) (http://www.sunshinelive.nl). For that reason Sunshine LIVE increased our broadcast times to 14 hours a week on Sundays. In that time we broadcast 4 times our weekly program TalentCast, we repeat 1 time our broadcast of last week and we broadcast 9 hours of TalentCast Non-stop in which we also solely play music from the artists of Sellaband!
More radiostations
We started a collaboration with Razors Edge Radio Central (MN, USA) (http://www.razorsedgeradiocentral.com/). This radio station will broadcast TalentCast 1 hour a week. You'll find the new broadcast times and the links to listen at: http://www.talentcast.nl/listen.php. Also local radiostation Ede FM (http://www.edefm.nl) is ready to promote music of Sellaband.
Vote for your Song of the week
To get the program more interactive a new function is now ready on the website. Members of Sellaband are invited to become a member of TalentCast. All members can vote on their favourite track of our weekly playlist from Sunday 10:00 (CET / GMT + 01:00) until Wednesday 21.00 (CET / GMT + 01.00). The winning song will become our Song of the week. The charts are published exactly one week after the voting has started. At that time the next voting starts also.
The Song of the week will be visible on our website and on the website of Sunshine LIVE. We will play the Song of the week again in our next broadcast of TalentCast. Sunshine LIVE will play this song every 2 hours during 1 week. Ede FM (http://www.edefm.nl) will play the Song of the week twice. In future we will try to find more ways to promote the Song of the week. If you have connections with radiostations, please let us know to join forces!
Want to become a member?
All members are allowed to vote for the Song of the week and can leave messages at the website. Artists can upload their music to us. This is not a guarantee that we will play this at once in our program, because we try to do right to all active artists on SAB and we don’t want to become an ‘old boys and girls network’. Want to become a member? Click here to find out how.
Enjoy the music of Sellaband on the radiostation of your choice!
