 NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE (Mach One /Spinville Records ) - Some might say that Mach One/ Spinville recording artist, DeLana Stevens' favorite song should be Johnny Cash's "I've Been Everywhere," written by Geoff Mark. Not since the days of Loretta Lynn's legendary whistle stop radio tours, where Lynn personally carried her records in the trunk of her car and brought them into radio stations she visited, has country radio experienced an artist so dedicated to bringing her music directly to the local radio stations. Stevens has devoted her first year in the music business to taking care of business. Stevens has visited country stations coast to coast. Her website (https://www.delanastevens.com/) proudly hosts the photos of Stevens with PD's and MD's from across the country who have welcomed Stevens into their conference rooms as well as onto their air waves. Her second single, "Say Hello to Heaven" is reaping the rewards of her efforts. Stevens broke onto the country market with her debut single, "Welcome to My World." The petite redhead dedicated herself to meeting as many radio folks as humanly possible stating, "We live in a world of instant emails and text messages. I wanted to meet the people who would be a major part of my career face to face. I didn't want to be just some picture on a CD, I wanted to get to know them and have the opportunity for them to know me." Stevens continued, "Radio Programmers and Music Directors have a very difficult job deciding what their listeners want to hear in their hometowns. I wanted to not only send them the music, I wanted to sing live for them and let them see what type of person I am. " Stevens' label, Mach One /Spinville Records has plans for Stevens to begin touring this season and will announce the release of a new video for her single "Say Hello to Heaven" within the next weeks.
