Show your support for a Sirius Polka Radio Show..

[Mike Surratt]

I have been getting many emails from fellow accordionists and polka friends about this movement to try and get support for a new XM Sirius Polka radio station. I have no other info...but, I thought is was worth posting here...

"good morning i need your help if you would like to see siriusxm create a polka channel please contact them at this email address and let them know that you would like to see a polka channel added onto siriusxm any help would be appreciated here is their email address listen...@siriusxm.com and this is where you can send your recordings to

is this from someone who works with SiriusXM?? I think it would be great for a Polka Channel. I know the idea it's been thrown around, and I think if givin a chance it would do better than the SiriusXM people would think. I'd be even interested in working with them as a DJ for that!!

Hi Andrew, I don't know who started the campaign. Like I said, I've received quite a few emails through my networking. It's great that they provided an email link. The more emails sent, the better.

Pass along the info -- Mike

Hi Folks,

I also contacted SiriusXM requesting their consideration to add polka
music to their entertainment programming. They responded as follows:

programming for possible airplay. We are glad you have taken this time

To consider your music for airplay, we request that the signed artists
or their label representative send their music on CD to:

The address provided is similar to the one mentioned above except that
it's to the attention of "Genre of music or channel name" (in our
case: "Polka Music"). I plan to send them some quality polka CDs. I
hope others do to.

Mike,

Just send them the "NEW DAY" CD - that should put them over the edge!

btw heard a rumor the "Boys Will Be Boys" and "Boys Night Out" lp's
being remastered & re-released on CD - any truth??
