About Andrea Morris & AM to FM Promotions:
Ready to get your music played and charted on Canadian radio? Then you should know Andrea Morris of AM to FM Promotions, established in 2004. While many veteran industry folks rest on their laurels, Andrea continues to push the boundaries while promoting independent music.
AM to FM is the only radio promotion company that hosts a live concert and YouTube series to promote their artists called AM to FM Live. Her North of Nashville showcase took the concept a step further and flew in key radio programmers to see artists perform. Each artist got to spend quality time with the programmers and the innovative idea became an award-winning documentary, North of Nashville: A Canadian Music Revolution.
With AM to FM, Andrea has promoted key artists such as Nasri (Magic!), Serena Ryder, Bif Naked, Yukon Blonde, Kelly Fraser, Matt Mac, D.O.A and Fernando Saunders (Lou Reed).
Before AM to FM, Andrea held the positions of National Canada or Regional U.S.A. Radio Promotions Director with labels such as IRS, Sire, Discovery, Linus and Song Corp. She also held many music director and on air radio personality positions in Canada, U.S. and U.K.
Radio promotion remains AM to FM’s core focus, however, Andrea strongly believes in exploring opportunities for artists beyond radio. She has referred many artists to Canadian and International labels, distributors, booking agents, managers, lawyers, and publicists to maximize their impact in the industry. With an impressive number of years in the music and radio industry, Andrea’s passion for helping artists succeed remains constant.

Andrea was the first person in the UK to play Chris Isaak’s “Wicked Game.” When she met him she told him it would be a big hit and he said “I’m not the kinda guy who has hit records.” A few years later, she had moved back to Cleveland and saw him backstage after his show and he came over full of hugs and kisses to say “You were right! Thank you for believing in me”
