(NOTE: Live Album Spotlights have limited availability and are reserved for some of the more popular releases during the year.

What is a Live Album Spotlight?
A Live Album Spotlight is a live interview and listening session hosted by Scot Lade of The Prog Corner YouTube channel and Kevin Carmony from Prog Radio. The event is simulcast on Prog Radio, providing broad exposure to your music. You and any members of your band will discuss your new album, and we'll even play two or three songs from the album. Scot, Kevin, and the live audience will ask questions and react to the songs. Think of it as an interactive reaction video for a few songs from your album, featuring Scot, Kevin, and all the live viewers and listeners.
