DELMARK RECORDS CELEBRATES BLACK HISTORY MONTH WITH RADIO AND FANS AROUND THE WORLD

Posted on February 16, 2022

“Delmark Records is pleased to celebrate Black History Month by delivering 11 essential records from prominent African American Artists.

“This month we are introducing the amazing new record by 91-year-old legendary bass player and blues singer Bob Stroger. Next up, we have four Delmark albums of Chicago blues giant Jimmy Johnson, who passed away January 31st, 2022. We have also included a special selection of albums from our historical catalogue that includes key African American artists. All these titles are available on CD and/or vinyl.

As Delmark celebrates legacy and history, we also celebrate life and love with a passionate Valentine’s Day single by the one and only Sharon Lewis.”

~ Julia A. Miller, President - Delmark Records


“Over the past year, we have truly enjoyed having the opportunity to work closely with Julia Miller, recipient of AirPlay Direct’s “Iconic Innovator” Award for 2021," said Lynda Weingartz, CEO - AirPlay Direct. "Together we have enjoyed many mutual successes and are looking forward to a very bright future in 2022 with Julia and her truly fantastic Delmark Records team.”

"AirPlay Direct is the ideal platform for the release of Delmark's historical catalogue and new albums to global radio," says Julia Miller, President - Delmark Records. "Since March 2021, when the collaboration between Delmark Records and AirPlay Direct started, the availability of hundreds of Delmark songs for radio airplay around the world has been a game changer, for us as a label and for how audiences listen to blues & jazz."

Miller continues, "I believe AirPlay Direct is the perfect tool for record labels, as well, as DJs, radio hosts and radio stations in the US and at the international level".
