What to send WGVE
WGVE takes music by email, which means your subject line is doing real work. Make it obvious what the message is before it's opened: genre, artist, track, and the word clean if it applies.
Send the clean edit if you have one. WGVE is FCC-bound during the day like nearly every station on this list, and a clean version simply gets played more often.
WAV is safest, 320 kbps MP3 is the floor. Anything below that gets noticed quickly on a broadcast chain.
Then wait. Give it about two weeks, send one polite follow-up, and let it go after that. Music directors remember the artists who were easy to deal with.
WGVE submission questions
Does WGVE accept music from independent artists?
Most likely. Everything WGVE publishes points to accepting independent submissions, but the station has not posted a formal submission page, so send with care.
How do you submit music to WGVE?
Email. The station's own posted guidance is: No submission page is posted and the station has no site of its own; this is the general address of Gary Community School Corporation, which owns and operates the station out of the Gary Area Career Center at 1800 E 35th Ave, Gary,.. The exact contact or form address is on your Rotation sheet, and you should confirm it on the station's page before sending.
What kind of music does WGVE play?
WGVE is freeform, so it programmes across genres and routes music to individual shows rather than one central playlist.
Where is WGVE located?
WGVE broadcasts on 88.7 FM from Gary, Indiana. It is a college station.
Every door is on your sheet.
Pick your sound and region on Rotation and each of these stations shows its real submission contact and the exact rules it posts: clean edit, WAV, form or mail. Checked by hand and kept current. No station here paid to be listed.
Radio is the free half, and it stays that way. Every station here is free to reach and no station ever pays to be listed. The Doors is the other half: 100 verified places that are not radio, sync libraries, music supervisors, festivals, contests, live sessions and the music press, 43 of which can actually pay an artist. It also lists the 162 we opened and refused, with the reason each one failed, because most lists of this kind are stale and the rejections are the part nobody else will show you. $9.99, the 2026 Q3 edition →
