It's getting close to The Eurovision Song Contest. This year's grand final will be held in Basel, Switzerland on Saturday 17th May. For contractual reasons, we'll only be providing our own radio coverage of the final for our affiliate stations in the USA, but there will be masses of Eurovision excitement on our streams in the run up to the big night. From Saturday 29th March, we will be running a weekly edition of Eurovision Juke Box Jury with our regular team of Euro pundits giving their opinions on this year's entries. You can hear that on Saturdays at 12:05 GMT (12.05pm UK on the 29th March and 13:05 pm UK thereafter) with a repeat on Sundays at 11:00 GMT (12 noon UK for all seven programmes). On the night of the grand final, we'll have a special preview of the show - details later. As always, Ewan Spence will be heading our team of experts.

We're happy to receive new music for consideration. Our playlist is broad and international, and we welcome songs in languages other than English. But there are a few rules. We receive in excess of 300 songs a week, so we don't have time to go searching for YouTube videos (that we can't download) or download press releases that give us links to somewhere else. So the rule is - send us an mp3 as an attachment to your email. It should be 192kbs or more and recorded at 44.1kHz. If you don't do that we probably won't listen to your music, which would be a pity. Second rule - mark your files clearly. The filename should be in the form Artist-Record Title. Thank you
