Chance for Local Bands In Canada From Lazyswede Productions, UK

Lazyswede Productions from Hull has been offered a one hour weekly radio show starting in September 2005 and running until April 2006. This show is on the Canadian radio show The Frèq (The Frequency Radio) www.thefreq.ca and will be presented by Glenn Williams. It will be aired in Ontario on Monday nights and will also be available on the internet at the same time.

Glenn says that this is an opportunity not only for the overseas artists and bands he deals with but also for local unsigned bands if they wish to get their music heard on air in Canada.
Glenn Williams runs Lazyswede Productions on a voluntary basis and gives his time freely to help unsigned bands. He is an ex semi-pro musician who had to give up his music career a number of years ago due to health reasons but decided to put his time into helping bands and artists to promote their music, no matter where they are from in the world.

In the four years that Lazyswede Productions has been running, Glenn said that he can count on one hand the bands from Hull that have asked him for help, whereas the overseas artists seem to have been more on the ball!

But now with this radio show, Glenn is giving the local bands the chance to get heard overseas and if they wish to get in contact with him they can do so through his website which can be found at
