I had Clint Davis on today to talk about a NEW Virtual Radio app called Stationhead. We talked about how this app is being used for Virtual Radio to provide a home for many different styles of Communication, and Engagement. Live on Air Music Streaming, podcast styles of shows and more. Stationhead is integrated with Spotify/Apple Music. Artists/Creators of all Genres are using Stationhead. Every time you spin a song on Stationhead, it counts as a Stream/Royalty for Artists!  #PlanetOTIS - THEOTISBAND.COM
