SBMP specializes in promoting both independent and major label acts to A/C Radio. We target the FMQB charts and have a very
high success rate of charting our clients. SBMP only accepts projects that we feel has charting potential and have rarely not gotten
a record charted.

General overview of the A/C market:

• Demographics: Females 18-34 (but sometimes 18-54)


• See who's on the FMQB A/C charts right now!


• A/C singles do not have to be a "Lite" record like "Celine Dion". Charts are eclectic and have artists in the Modern
  A/C, Hot A/C and Lite A/C genres. SBMP frequently promotes A/C singles that lean toward Alternative, Top 40,
  Urban AAA/Singer Songwriter or Smooth Jazz. While not every record will fit the format, the genre is diverse.


• If you have a question about whether your record fits, send it to us and we will let you know.
