S02E03: A chat with radio host Lazy E from 97.9X!

from Beyond the Break

We are excited to have Lazy E join us for this episode of the podcast. He is the host at local rock radio station 979x, so he tells us how he started in radio nearly 19 years ago, and what it's really like to work in such a unique type of career. He shares what it takes to grow as a station and as an individual in that environment. He suggests ways for someone to increase their opportunities, and offers words of wisdom for artists who feel stuck in a rut. Lazy E explains how local artists can get an advantage when it comes to radio play, and how the business of radio directly affects artists and their opportunity for airtime. He highlights how an artist can submit their original music to be featured on the radio segment "Locals Only" which airs on Sunday evenings with Lazy E, and what it takes behind the scenes to make audio tracks radio-ready. He gets into what make "Locals Only" so important, how he got involved, and what makes it special for him personally.
