Contact Us

Bands:
If you think your music fits the 3WK sound, we'd love to hear it. Either e-mail wanda with a link to your music, or send your music to 3WK, PO Box 160161, St. Louis MO 63116, USA.

rules of submission:
a. No overkill submissions. Save yourself time and money - we throw away folders, bio's, candy, panties, reviews, etc. We don't care if the Boulder CO News Review thinks you're the greatest thing since Sonic Youth. And contrary to popular belief, the bigger your package, the less likely we'll be impressed. All we want is the cd with the contact info.
b. No copyright protected cds. We listen with our computer and if we like your stuff we copy it in the computer to put into our database. If it don't copy it don't get played.
c. No dvds. We're not ifilm. If a movie or video pops up, we throw it out.
d. No returns. If you send it, we own it. Listen to 3WK before you send it to see your music fits 'cause as much as we might like funk country, we won't play it.

Requests:
We're automated (keeps our costs low) so we can't respond immediately to requests, but if you beg nicely we might get Jim to add a song for you at a specific time. Email wanda with artist/song and what time you want it played. Give us a couple of days to set it up.

Listening or website problems:
go to the faq page first and if that doesn't answer your question, email jim.

Anything music or advertising:
is a jim thing

Everything else:
is a wanda thing


who we are:
jim atkinson - pd/tech support/owner and all around good cop. been in radio since '73, thus the classic rock stream, but loves new independent music, thus the indie stream. continues to listen to AM and FM radio on car trips thinking that there has to be good terrestrial radio somewhere. loves cigarettes and scotch. never lies.
wanda atkinson - gm/po box md/owner and 3WK devil's advocate. thinks her main job is to keep jim from screwing up. he thinks her job is to keep him happy. fun ensues. loves dogs. lies all the time.
chris pickert - audio and tech guru/part owner. lives in Kansas City and commutes to Denver. currently looking for new car for commute. very cute.
august huber - forms and database work, sometimes. NYC server guy, mostimes. genius when he want to.
ken rundel - voice and residing conscience of 3WK classic rock stream. never gave up on world peace and flower power. still lives the dream.
andy waschick - website stuff. fixes everything wanda and jim screw up. currently designing an all-enclusive database so all we have to do is push the red button to update site.
eli mckee- band contact/female voice and consistent winner of best display of 3WK tshirt contest. hopelessly in love with rolling stones, but we forgive her.

why we do this:
it's the music, baby!
it's certainly not the hours, wages, and benefits (tons, none, and none). it's coming to work and finding new cds, any of which could be the best album of the year. it's going to garage sales and finding that byrds album we've been looking for forever. it's giving bands a free marketplace for their music and listeners a filter for all the great new and classic rock that they don't have time to discover on their own. but mostly it's the independent thing we love most - the freedom to play what we want, to work when we want, and to meet up with the smartest listeners on the net.
thank you for letting us do this since 1997.
