About CDX Nashville
CDX Nashville was founded in 1991 by late Country Music Hall of Fame Broadcaster Charlie Douglas and national record promotion veteran Paul Lovelace as a delivery system for labels and artists to supply their upcoming singles to all full-time US country stations, satellite providers, syndicators, and programming consultants.
Since its conception, CDX Nashville has expanded from physical CD distribution to include digital distribution, label services, airplay monitoring and more.
