Hi everybody,

For many years I have been distributing my own CD’s to Radio Stations and Presenters around Australia and across the world. It is constantly becoming harder to keep my mailing list up to date and I am always trying to expand on my 500 odd airplay contacts.

My proposal is, if there is anybody with a similar size mailing list and would like to swap, then I am sure many of us could improve on our airplay and sales. This information is hard to come by and some of you may have had to pay for it. If we help each other we all improve our chances of survival.

A mailing list must be Radio Stations and Presenters that play country orientated music.

If anybody is interested you can ring me on 0407 040318 or, e-mail colmillington@bigpond.com and I can mail or e-mail my information to you. I do suggest that you indicate on the list the Stations and Presenters that acknowledge your mail outs with, phone calls, text messages or e-mails.

Kind Regards,
Col Millington.

Col Millington - Bio

Col Millington was born in Melbourne on the 13th of January, 1949. At the age of eight, Col began his showbusiness career with a song and tapdance routine. Three years later Col was learning the guitar from elder brother Gary Formally, member of "The Crickets" and "The Saxons".

Col went on to learn drums and for some time was the drummer for "The Rondells" and "Bluestone", however Col never put down the guitar and continued developing his talents as a songwriter.

Col's professional song writing career started in 1974 when he met Barry Loftus, whose influence on Col with his lyric writing was just the thing to fire up the young musician. Within two years the pair had written a stack of songs and Col began recording his first album.

The album quickly gained Col national recognition when picked up by Nick Erby. This led to instant television appearances, radio air-play and performances across the country.

Since then Col has recorded 15 Cds covering a wide range of songs, including Country, Pop, Rock, Old time and of course, his own material.

In 30 years this versatile entertainer has gold and silver records to his name, has been a top 5 finalist at Tamworth on several occasions and performed with some of the best (John Farnham, Darly Somers, Johnny Chester, Jade Hurley, Little River Band etc).

Col has also produced and recorded albums for Jean Stafford, Judy Stone, Wayne Horsburgh, Syd Heylen, The Phones and the Australian cast recording of Big River.

Get a breath of fresh air into your Club Function or Group Meeting with someone who has performed with the best Australian and International Acts.
