A Professional CMB Feature Artist listing is individually researched by CMB staff in-conjunction with your input & direction. It is not "automatically" created, but rather created individually as part of the personal attention to your needs that CMB offers. Real people work for you, and we care about your success. We enjoy getting to know each artist we work with, hence for example each thumbnail of a webpage for your professional listing is made after we visit the page it links and directs fans to.

Where an artist also has a special CMB Artist Page their photo is highlighted in the gallery and when clicked on the visitor is taken directly to that artist's feature page. You can read more about these CMB Artist feature pages below.

FEATURE ARTISTS are promoted throughout CMB's various websites
Above is one method fans are directed to our Feature Artists
An example of one of our Professional CMB Feature Artists that we'll use to help you better understand this unique offer, is that of Australian country singer Dave Cawthorn. With the help of CMB, Dave has produced his first film clip plus his first special EP Album (see below). You can also see a snapshot of the mini-website and Artist Page he received as part of his COMPLETE Pro CMB Artist Package (see at right or to visit just click here). CMB even wrote songs for his album, provided studio musicians, recording facilities and professional filming and photography. These additional services are only available to artists under our COMPLETE Pro CMB Artist Package program and where any costs are involved, they are further heavily reduced by CMB. Quite often the additional services are free of charge.
Title: When Will It Rain Year Released: 2009 Summary:
This CD/DVD set is a community-minded production to raise awareness to the drought that has stricken so many areas across Australia in recent years. The music video for the feature single was filmed on location in the Southern Midlands of Tasmania and produced by CMB Artist Services.
The COMPLETE Pro CMB Artist Package includes professional support in the production of demo's, EP's and CD's such as that for Dave Cawthorn above.
CMB FEATURE ARTISTS CAN AVOID COPYRIGHT ISSUES: You may have noticed that music and video websites such as YouTube® are closing down channels & removing songs that the artist does not hold the copyright to. Plus recording labels & even live venues know that legally you can only perform the songs to which you hold either copyright or written permission to use. Yet not all country musicians are songwriters, so it's important they have access to professional original music. All CMB Feature Artists can use the CMB library of original songs. These can be legally used, and even reserved solely for an artist. Plus songs can be written with or for our CMB Feature Artist. Here's an example of one written with Dave Cawthorn by CMB's songwriters to match his style of traditional Australian country music:
Them Whistlin' Blues (Traditional Australian Country Music)
(Performed by Dave C. Cawthorn, written with CMB Artist Services)
Under the COMPLETE Pro CMB Artist Package, CMB Feature Artists can
access original new songs including full backing track.
Or receive assistance in writing & recording your original songs,
CMB Records distributes CD's and DVD's using the stable of CMB Feature Artists CMB Feature Artists may be offered paid opportunities, e.g. our "Best of New Country" and "Rising Country Stars" collections

Due to the personalised nature of this CMB package, we can only accept a limited number of artists. You will be personally managed and assisted at all times, though you can choose what advice or opportunities you wish to take and when.

A Professional CMB Feature Artist set-up is individually researched by CMB staff in-conjunction with your input & direction. It is not "automatically" created and should not be confused with websites that let just anyone sign-up through automatic computer software. Artists accepted by CMB will soon know this is a real-world project, not just fly-by-night internet setup.
Every element of what CMB does is created individually as part of the personal attention to your needs, and to the interests of our listeners and viewers. Real people work for you, and we care about your success. We enjoy getting to know each artist we work with, hence for example each thumbnail of a webpage for your professional listing is made after we visit the page it links and directs fans to, exploring your web pages ourselves. It is also why CMB opportunities are strictly limited, and why you need to understand that joining the CMB stable of artists means a direct and personal relationship between yourself and the CMB team.
We value your suggestions and take your input onboard. We also tailor the work we do on your behalf to your specific needs. We are a broadcasting and production country music organisation producing our own CD's, DVD's, TV Shows, Radio programs and much more. The depth of this particular CMB website gives an indication of how professional and how large we are. Yet with all our success, we have never lost our greatest love, that of working closely with individuals and sharing with them the joy of success.

To see another example of a CMB Feature Artist's "mini-website" or Artist page, click on the image below to visit the page of our CEO, Miss Ruby Rose Taylor
With the COMPLETE Pro CMB Artist Package, you also receive your own "mini-website" or Feature Artist Page. Each such page is created individually and contains many special features, with flexibility to ensure it is of maximum advantage to the artist.
Most successful basic websites are usually built around 5 brief pages. What we have done here at CMB is combine these pages into one that is easy for the visitor to navigate and yet contains many features of larger websites. This formula has proven very successful for us in many of our own websites over the years.
And your "mini-website" or Feature Artist page will have all the latest you would expect in digital media presentation. Jukeboxes, photo galleries (which can be set to run as a slideshow with music in the background), simple means of downloading and MP3 samples or songs you choose to make available. Add in your biography, visual and text based discography, and other write-ups about yourself and music, to a CMB developed "form" routine" for ease of communication from your fans and others who wish to contact you (no spam!).
Finally with your own secure e-commerce capabilities you can sell anything from single songs to EP's, complete albums, DVD's, merchandise and anything else you desire. CMB charges NO commission of any kind, we simply step you through the process of estblishing a PayPal account for yourself if you don't already have one, and then place the appropriate programming into your page. You, or someone you know and trust such as a personal manager, handle all sales directly. This method tends to lead to better sales than using other online music sales services, as sales are made on a page dedicated entirely to you and your talent.
A summary of the features of your "mini-website" / Artist Page include:
Photo Gallery with up to 10 photo's of your choice
Embedded Jukebox featuring up to 6 of your own songs
Written biography. Includes history, influences, and other information you wish to share with fans & country music industry bodies
Feature Photographs to go along with your biography and page
Discography of any CD's or DVD's you have released to date
Song listing by Title to show the broadness of your repertoire
Song Downloads if you choose to make samples or select songs available free for download.
Your own Interactive Enquiry and Purchase form to allow you to sell your music and also receive safe communications from fans and industry
Professional E-Commerce Solutions built into your page using PayPal®. CMB takes NO commissions on your sales. You receive all payment directly from the customer via PayPal®
Full support on how to set up and sell your music and merchandise online via your page
CMB does all the work for you. We professionally work on your photos and completely setup and look after your page.

To see a full working "mini-website", please visit that of country singer and CMB's CEO, Ruby Rose Taylor. Just click here to open her page in a new browser tab or window.
To further promote your "mini-website" and Feature Artist Page, there is a special difference in how your photo/icon is included in the special scrolling photo gallery of featured country music artists. This scrolling marquee of feature country music artists appears, usually towards the top, on selected CMB pages most popular with our visitors and listeners. With the COMPLETE Pro CMB Artist Package your photo is highlighted by a gold border, and when clicked on the country music fan is taken directly to your artist feature page (mini-website).
This is yet another way you can gain new fans and increase online sales. Because your page also features embedded YouTube® videos, it also increases video views amongst other advantages.
The scrolling marquee, which is a unique CMB creation, has many features so that country music fans can easily navigate through it - back, forwards, and stopping the scroll to select those specially highlighted CMB Feature Artists who are participating in the COMPLETE Pro CMB Artist Package and program. A simple click and the visitor is viewing your Feature Artist page.

Return to TopNews Stories, Interviews and Media Contact (Selected Artists)
CMB is pleased to be able to offer grass-roots country music artists significant media exposure via not only CMB's own media outlets, but also the many other newspapers and magazines (both on and offline) with whom CMB has established contacts. CMB also has access to specialist press release companies who can even further ensure that feature stories or latest news on an artist can reach an even wider audience. We're always happy to point you in the right direction, no cost involved!
Not all artists need or are ready for major media exposure. It's important to balance your growth with the type of stories and outlets in which an artist is featured. Local newsletters, newspapers and even on-line blogs are great ways for up-and-coming artists to seek publicity commensurate to their achievements to date.
CMB will feature in it's online news selected artists regardless of their "fame" to date. This also helps ensure that the country music audience is able to hear about new artists who will help shape the future of country music in the years to come. The country music audience, unlike most other genres, is quite open to "unknowns". For country music is a genre that is very much about the person and the story rather than how famous they may or may not yet be. That's the history of country music, music by the people and for the people.
If you'd like to be considered for an article in the CMB News, or for wider exposure via our associates or through press releases, simply contact CMB and we'll definitely consider all good stories.
Radio was one of the original and most popular means for accessing country music. It has helped ease the potential isolation of country life, and for many families has provided a means of entertainment that can be shared by all ages. Music that country folk can relate to and so often sung from the heart by people who can understand the various trials, challenges, joys and sadness that can be uniquely experienced by those who live on the land.
For this reason CMB has dedicated a whole page of this website to our CMB Radio broadcasts. We actively seek new artists to interview and who's music we can share with our country audience. Remember the country genre is very broad, and it is music of all styles that our audience is keen to hear. Please see our CMB Radio page for more information and to listen to our online broadcasts. Also the grass-roots CMB radio show "Real Music, Real People" can be heard online by visiting our popular and unique popup Country Theatre.
CMB Artist Services was formed over many years as grass-roots independent artists, producers and even country music fans looked for a method by which they could share ideas, talents and projects with the widest possible audience. Without the budgets of the big record labels and production houses, and often driven by idealism rather than commercialism, they found that the best answer lay in the pooling of resources and drawing on that special "something" that lies at the heart of true country life - community.
As projects took off, artists achieved success and access to professional equipment and personnel grew, CMB never forgot it's roots. And it's own original promise to always support grass-roots country music initiatives. As the world of music changed with the advent of the digital age, especially the internet, CMB set out to provide a series of methods by which a greater variety of new artists could not only be heard, but seen.
Some of the early projects that helped form what today is CMB Artist Services include simple country TV series such as "Have Car Will Travel", "Folklore Explored", "The Bushpainter" and "Wild, Blue and Free" just to name a few. Each included a country music element, and each offered via their websites MP3 downloads of the featured songs which later evolved to become more professional music video clips. Early internet music broadcasts were just a simple video of live and unplugged performances by various artists. Newspapers and magazines were also begun such as "The Country Boot". Rough and ready, and very country!
From these beginnings has come the CMB of today. CMB Artist Services looks forward to assisting today's country musicians in gaining publicity, exposure and helping raise their profile not only within the industry itself, but also directly to their potential fans.
NO CATCH, NO FINE PRINT and all done in TRUE COUNTRY SPIRIT. This website was specifically designed as an arm of Country Music Broadcasting to support and promote country music and country musicians. CMB clearly defines any additional services that are offered to artists IF the artist is interested.
This website and the services on offer represent CMB's clear intent to broaden the range of country music and musicians that fan's can access. Talent is not confined to a few big names or whether and artist has been fortunate enough to have been signed by a major label. Country music has always been the music of real people.
And that's all CMB seeks to do, create a two-way medium between lovers of country music and country music performers. You can contact CMB at anytime with any questions or for clarification on any matter. Please enjoy yourself and BE YOU!
The music industry, regardless of genre, is changing. The way people access music, seek information on their favourite stars and how/where they expect to find it has changed in recent years. Though the traditional methods such as albums, concerts and hard-print magazines will always be with us, digital mediums such as the internet have become a primary means for people to explore their love of music. The country music industry is no exception, and the industry recognises the need to keep the country music genre "up with the times" whilst not losing sight of the very reason country music evolved in the first place - what is colloquially referred to as "traditional country values".
Artists can find themselves "stars" via the new broadcast medium of the internet, and gain a large and loyal following before they have even released a CD, album or physical recording. However to take that next step in a successful and enjoyable musical career, the backing of the established industry (e.g. Record labels, TV programs, radio shows, magazines etc.) is essential. Plus fans around the world are always looking for music that can become a part of their life. They also need a way to discover the new artists.
So now there is an extra way in which the industry, artist, and fans can meet. CMB has used this internet arm of their overall broadcasting and media outlet to provide a professional method by which the industry can virtually "meet" new talent. In turn new talent can receive extra exposure to the industry and the country music community at large. It's a win-win all round.
CMB offers all country artists a comprehensive 
Finally, and highly recommended to up-and-coming and existing successful artists, is to become an Official CMB Country Artist and additionally receive a complete "mini-website" or Artist Page hosted by CMB that also allows you to sell your music online (no commission), showcase your music with your own jukebox, offer free downloads, present a full biography for fans, media and industry bodies, communicate safely with fans and industry, and much, much more (to jump straight to this limited offer
