WELCOME
BELIEVERS
We’re siblings Jocelyn & Chris. Thanks to our parents we grew up on a steady diet of records and radio. TV was never the focus in our household, instead, music was.
Today as we prepare to release our eighth studio record, we are reflecting on a question we’ve been asked by various well-meaning consultants and otherwise nosy music industry folks.
"Why on earth do you put so much effort into radio?"
The easy answer for us is because it works. Radio connects artists like us to actual communities and real people. It’s not monthly listeners or followers, it’s real people. Radio brings people to shows and introduces listeners to new music because radio is trusted.
Triple A radio in particular has remained our focus because ultimately we believe in it. There is no format with more curators who make decisions by listening. It’s a format where good music sometimes stands a chance against artificially manufactured digital metrics.
We both believe in AAA radio period.
But instead of expounding continually on our own experience, we decided to reach out with some questions to some of the many folks in AAA who have inspired us.
And… if you’d like to be included and are willing to answer some questions from us, we’d love to hear from you! Just email us at news@jocelynandchris.com
Our sincere love, gratitude, and thanks:)

Radio is the OG of access for independent artists that STILL need REAL relationships to endure.

CHRIS
AND DAVE
Chris and Dave of WEXT
Chris and Dave of WEXT are the reason we write and play music. After seeing us perform way back in middle school, Dave told us that if we ever wrote original music, he’d play it on the radio. Turns out, that was all we needed to hear. We wrote our first song the next week and immediately caught the bug. WEXT was the first radio station to play our music and has been with us ever since!
