On the very first day of promoting the video for "Full Time Cutie" from our upcoming album Rewind releasing this coming Tuesday, our label (Voluminous Records) received a call from the video promoter. Basically, the video has been picked up by JBTV based in Chicago. The show is syndicated in some very large markets here in the U.S. - Chicago, New York City, Los Angeles, Dallas, Boston, Miami, Philadelphia, San Diego, San Francisco and Washington D.C., so our video will be playing in all these markets. JBTV will be programming our video beginning next week. I believe this means that it will be aired next week but I'm not 100% certain on that.
The video promoter stated that this is their #1 regional video outlet and the producers for the show actually reached out to him before he was even ready to start following up on solicitations. He said it is not a common thing for his clients to reach out to him in this way, so we're taking this as a very good sign. He went on to say that they have absolutely fallen in love with the song and video.
JBTV is also tapped into major FM stations in the metro areas listed above. Because they love the song so much they're going to be using "Full Time Cutie" as a bumper on radio. FYI: a bumper is a short audio segment leading into something or with a voice talking over the music. I had to look it up myself and found this description: "short clips of signature or theme music used to buffer transitions between programming elements. Bumper music is commonly employed when a syndicated program takes a break for local station identification or 'goes to a radio commercial." (read more on Wikipedia)
