(Nashville, TN – Sept. 1, 2009) Television production company CJM Productions/Program Factory, LLC has increased the viewership of two of its most popular programs, “Inside Music Row” and “On Solid Rock,” thanks to new agreements with CMC Australia and the American Forces Network.
On Oct. 1, 2009, 24/7 Country music television network CMC Australia will begin broadcasting weekly episodes of “Inside Music Row” to more than 2.3 million homes in Australia.
“CMC is delighted to add Inside Music Row to our weekly schedule. The addition of the latest news, as presented by Bailey, will keep the CMC audience up-to-date with what is happening in Nashville and with country music all over North America,” says Tim Daley, CMC Australia Program Director.
A production of CJM Productions and The Program Factory, LLC, “Inside Music Row” is a popular Country music news and entertainment program based in Nashville, Tenn. The weekly show currently reaches more than 24 million households in approximately 100 markets.
“We are excited to announce that Australia’s premier Country music television network, CMC Australia, is now carrying ‘Inside Music Row.’ It is a significant step in expanding our international reach and proof of the growing interest overseas in the Country music format,” says CJM Productions founder and IMR Executive Producer Jeff Moseley.
Another CJM Productions show, “On Solid Rock,” can now be seen in 175 countries as a result of a recent agreement with the American Forces Network. The show airs a broad range of Christian-based music videos to military bases, ports and camps around the world through the AFN.
“As a former soldier, I know how comforting it is to be able to watch television programs from your home country while you are serving in a foreign land,” says IMR and OSR dDirector Brian Covert. “I know it means even more to our servicemen and women than it does to us as a company to have our show on the air through the AFN.”
Adds Chaplain (Major) Bruce Kite, “American Forces Network is extremely proud to add ‘On Solid Rock’ to its great lineup of stellar religious programs. This contemporary Christian music video series is right on target for our audience of mostly 18 to 38-year-old viewers serving worldwide in 175 countries and aboard US ships.”
