Surrogate Bands, Floydian Slip’s annual Pink Floyd cover contest, has been postponed until 2021.
In light of the pandemic, we didn’t think it responsible to ask musicians to gather in close quarters of recording studios to lay down tracks to submit to the contest.
We’ll announce details of our 10th annual contest in Spring ’21.
We began Surrogate Bands in 2011 as a way for musicians to celebrate the music of Pink Floyd by recording their own versions of Floyd songs to submit to the contest. Winners have been featured during “Surrogate Bands,” a special all-covers edition of the “Floydian Slip” radio show, broadcast every July.
The “Surrogate Bands” program will air as scheduled this July, without the contest element.

Though Sun Broadcast Group (SBG) has announced it will cease handling network commercial sales for “Floydian Slip” effective April 26, we want to assure affiliate stations and listeners, the show goes on.
Random Precision Media LLC (RPM) of Shelburne, Vt., produces, syndicates and distributes “Floydian Slip” to a network of more than 100 stations.
Since 2014, we’d been under contract for network ad sales with Envision Networks. SBG recently acquired Envision, and last week informed us they intended to drop “Floydian Slip” from its sales offerings.
Unfortunately, they also sent a letter to our affiliate stations erroneously stating SBG is syndicator of our show. Titled “NOTICE OF SYNDICATION/DISTRIBUTION TERMINATION,” the letter offers to provide our stations “affiliation details for replacement programs that are available for your station.”
We’re willing to believe the letter was simply a momentary lapse of reason. Nonetheless, it’s caused confusion and uncertainty among our show’s affiliate stations.
So we want to emphasize: “Floydian Slip” isn’t going away. On the contrary, we’re shining on!

Sony Legacy has delayed the release of “Live at the Roundhouse,” a concert film and album by Nick Mason’s Saucerful of Secrets.
Originally scheduled for April 17, the package will now drop Sept. 19.
The band announces the change in a tweet that reads in part, “Due to the current situation and considering the well-being of our fans we’ve taken the decision to move the release date.”
