Anna Ha writesA Shout Out from CHIRP Radio Promotions Directors Mike Pakowski and Anna Ha!

As Promotions Directors for CHIRP Radio, we have the exciting task of extending the CHIRP experience outside of listening to the station at home, work, or on your commute (shout-out to our mobile apps!). This great city of ours has a vibrant arts community, and we are proud to be a part of it. Our department partners with venues, promoters, and artists for CHIRP sponsored shows and events. These events allow us to be part of the experience and interact with current and future CHIRP Radio listeners.

Ticket giveaways are our department's bread and butter, allowing us to send listeners to shows, promote artists and events, and strengthen our relationships with local venues. It's win-win-win! In addition to concerts, we've also sent CHIRP fans to local music fests (Pitchfork, Riot Fest), film festivals (CUFF, CIMMFest, CIFF), and other fun events (Beerhoptacular, C2E2).

CHIRP is about community and sharing and celebrating music, arts, and culture with that community. We love our listeners and supporters, and we pride ourselves on providing them with a unique experience they can't get anywhere else. There is nothing more rewarding for us than hearing from our winners after they've gone to an amazing show or event that they might not have otherwise attended! Your support will allow us to keep doing what we love!
