To submit a song request, go to our website (www.RadioFreeAmericana.com). Click the "Playlist & Requests" link using the Navigation bar on the left side of the page. This will take you to the beginning of our "Playlist & Requests" web pages, where you can search our entire playlist. Note that songs are sequenced alphabetically by Artist first name (e.g., Kathleen Edwards is listed under "K"), and there is a separate page for each letter of the alphabet. (As you search for a song, please note that it may take awhile to pull up "Playlist & Requests" web pages because our playlist is huge; however, it's worth the wait.) Once you've found the track you want to hear, click the "Request" button beside the name of the track. Your request will be automatically placed in the queue.
Please note that due to licensing laws and the need to be courteous to all of our listeners, (a) you will be limited to submitting 2 song requests per day; and (b) your request may be denied if the artist, album or track has recently been played. When you click the "Request" button, a pop-up window will appear that will tell you if the request was accepted or failed. If it failed, it will give you a reason (e.g., "album recently played", etc.)
IMPORTANT NOTE: If an artist, album or song receives repeated daily requests (no matter who or what it is), then we reserve the right to remove the artist from the published request list (but not necessarily from our internally-managed playlist). Please understand that we need to enforce this policy to prevent the request feature from being used for promotional purposes, maintain a secure website, and conform to our programming objectives.
On rare occasions, we may disable the electronic request feature described above for maintenance or related purposes, and will attempt to notify you on our LoudCity page forum.
