Hello and welcome to the IMP Web Page.
The seeds to IMP were planted back in December of 2012 when I had a vision of promoting one artist on privately owned FM Radio stations within New Zealand. This was so successful that a handful of Independent Musicians
were added to the data base over a period of time.
Although in the early stages I was running with no Identification, the campaign was a huge success.
Over the following years, numerous musicians were contacted via the social media pages of Facebook but
it wasn't until March of 2014 that the identify of what is now known as IMP was launched (our first emblem being a Golden Phoenix) and it was around this time that a friendship was formed with Susan Keith, DJ Suzy.
IMP along with DJ Suzy soon had a two hour show on an American based Radio Station known then as Wayne's World and on
May 30, 2014, the Facebook IMP Page was created.
Today, IMP airs and promotes almost 1,000 amazing Independent Artists and Groups on our three shows and on a
number of stations, and we are adding more artists each week .
Myself, I am concentrating my time over the next few months on getting back to the roots of where IMP started and contacting FM Stations to air our shows. If you would like to know more about IMP please email us at impsubmit@yahoo.com
Best regards,

I'm so happy to be part of the IMP team. When I started with IMP as a DJ in 2014, I knew nothing about Independent Artists. I soon learned that there are many, many unsigned artists of all genres out there not being heard. I love the friendships I've made with these talented people and absolutely love working on all of our shows. It is my honor to be able to share the music of these artists. It's all about the music! ~DJ Suzy
