Motor City Riffs On 101 WRIF
Are you in a local band? Would you like your local band’s music played on the radio? Better yet, on The Riff? To submit your band, send us an MP3 of one of your songs that you’d like to be played! Send that MP3 to MCR@wrif.com!
In return, we only ask that your music be radio-friendly and free of swearing. Now, I don’t think that’s asking for too much! So, take the time to edit or censor any swearing out of your music before you send it over. If it swears, it will not be played.
We’re looking forward to hearing your stuff! Motor City Riffs has featured bands from across Michigan and some from Ontario! We’ve had bands that have never played a public set and bands that are selling out shows! You’re never too big or too small for Motor City Riffs.
