Alaska thins its playlist for state’s Music on Hold project
JUNEAU, Alaska — An Alaska program that uses music by state artists as background songs for callers on hold has cut down its playlist, a report said.
Some musicians were surprised to see their songs cut from the Alaska Music on Hold project’s playlist, The Juneau Empire reported Saturday.
“No one has notified us with anything. We didn’t even know that it was an issue,” said Heather Warren of the band Harm.
The project to replace sleepy hold music for state office lines was announced in November, but paused shortly afterward.
