Music department
WSUM provides quality music programming without commercial interruption. Our DJs undergo our rigorous training program and their shows are hand-picked to ensure that we have a solid mix of great tunes going out over the air. DJs themselves personally select the music for their shows, giving WSUM a truly unique sound that goes un-matched by any other radio station. Genres range from familiar to extremely obscure because here at WSUM all genres are considered equal.
WSUM is also very pro-local music. We have shows dedicated to local music, and love to work with local (and not-so-local) bands. If you are a musician and think that your material would rock our airwaves - Prove it! Read on for information on CD submission and possible in-studio performances/interviews at WSUM.

Music submissions
At this time WSUM can only accept physical CD submissions for airplay. Once received, the CDs are reviewed and basically given a "Yay" or "Nay." Please note: It is solely up to the DJs to pick the music, and every show is different.
Please take this into consideration when checking the status of your submissions. Turn-around for a submitted CD is on average 1-3 weeks, so feel free to contact the Music Director for tracking CDs.
If you'd like to submit something to WSUM, the address is:
