WYXR programmes by show, so the programme your record suits matters more than the station as a whole. These are taken from the station's own published schedule. Name the show in your subject line rather than the station. Where a show takes music at its own address, it is marked below and the exact address is on your sheet.

What to send WYXR
WYXR 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.
A clean edit is not optional here. WYXR states it plainly, and without one your record can't air in daytime hours no matter how good it is.
They ask for lossless audio. Export a WAV or FLAC from the master rather than bouncing an MP3, and keep about a decibel of headroom so broadcast processing has room to work.
WYXR is volunteer-run. The person reading your email is doing it for love of the music, so be brief, be human, and follow up once at most.
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.
WYXR submission questions
Does WYXR accept music from independent artists?
Yes. WYXR is currently accepting submissions from independent artists, verified against the station's own published information in September 2026.
How do you submit music to WYXR?
Email. The station's own posted guidance is: WAV/MP3; FCC-clean; DJ-reviewed. 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 WYXR play?
WYXR is freeform, so it programmes across genres and routes music to individual shows rather than one central playlist.
Does WYXR require a clean version?
Yes. WYXR specifies clean or FCC-compliant audio, so an explicit-only record will not get daytime airplay here.
Where is WYXR located?
WYXR broadcasts on 91.7 FM from Memphis, Tennessee. It is a community 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 →

How they take music → Email · The contact page carries a link headed "WANT TO BE HEARD? CLICK ME!" pointing at [contact on your sheet], with the instruction underneath: "Please attach any and all EPKs, MP3, or video links and if possible let us know if you are unsigned!" That is a role address published for music, separate from the three named people also listed on the page, who are the Program Director, Production and Marketing, and the General Manager. Those three are a staff directory and are not the music route.
