Song & Half Page Advertisement In The Continental Magazine - Issue #38

If you are in a band or run a label that produces surf, instro, garage, rockabilly or exotic music, you can have your song on the next Continental Magazine CD for only $100 per song. In exchange you will receive:

♦ 1 song on the CD (must be an original song, or a public domain/traditional cover song)
♦ 12 copies of the finished magazine with CD (these retail for $8.95, so if you sell all 12 magazines you will make $107.40)
♦ 1 half page advertisement in the upcoming issue (measuring 5.0 inches wide x 4.0 inches tall / Color or Black & White Artwork / JPG or PDF file)

Your song must be sent to us as a WAV file. Payment can be sent via Paypal to: records@dblcrown.com, or you can pay with your credit card through our website.

NOTE: UNFORTUNATELY WE CAN NO LONGER SHIP MAGAZINES TO BANDS LOCATED IN THE UNITED KINGDOM DUE TO NEW VAT TAX RULES. THERE WILL ALSO BE A SHIPPING SURCHARGE TO SHIP THE PACKAGE OF 12 MAGAZINES TO BANDS OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES. Please send us an email at: records@dblcrown.com for options if you are located in the UK, the European Union or anywhere else in the world.

This is only available for songs that are surf, instro, garage, rockabilly or exotic music. There are probably some songs that are outside these genres that will be acceptable too. However, we don’t want songs that are obviously outside these genres – no techno, modern/alternative rock, modern country, folk, classical, etc.

Issue #37 will include in-depth interviews, tons of CD and LP reviews, and much more. The 20+ song CD sampler will include cuts from many great surf, garage, lounge and rockabilly combos!

If you would like to send music for review in The Continental, please get it to us by July 31st, 2024. Deadline for ads/songs for the compilation CD is August 31st, 2024.
