Mission Statement
ProgRockRadio.com offers a selected choice of melodic, symphonic, and psychedelic or art rock for listeners all over the world.
As most of you know, the broad genre of progressive rock encompasses many different types of rock music.
We have chosen to narrow it down a little. In doing so, we chose not to play much (if any) of the heavier sub-genres of
progressive rock (prog metal, heavy metal). Also, unlike some other "progressive" rock radio stations, we don't musch if any of traditional "Classic Rock".
As much as we like Classic Rock, we feel there are enough internet and FM stations that offer that music.
We have over 700 (and growing) prog artists in our library. We also like to embrace the Independant Artist, we know how hard it is to be heard and
include music from many unknown Artists in our playlists. For a complete list of bands that we play here at ProgRockRadio.com, please check our artist list
on the home page. Almost all the music is hand picked by our staff. However, here at ProgRockRadio.com we do try to accomodate listener requests and I think you'll find that if the requests fall within our liking, we usually accomodate what you requested.
ProgRockRadio is a non-commercial internet radio service. We do offer some advertising and take donations but it's not for profit, it is to support the service we provide.
We respect the artists and record labels and pay Live365.com to stream our music, and they pay royalties to the artists through various organizations.
This station is dedicated to all the wonderful artists making great music all around the world.
