A radio festival is a music show featuring live bands that are created and promoted solely by commercial radio stations or media conglomerates. Often, bands are not paid for their performances, but they are given free air play in addition to the exposure received by the promotion of the festival. The practice of radio stations producing music festivals is seen by some to be unfair to the musicians, who do not get paid for their performances. Another criticism of radio festivals is that the radio station may be less interested in promoting diversity of bands than they are interested in promoting certain bands that perpetuate existing genres of music already proven to appeal to certain demographic groups such as Kelly Clarkson. The accusation is that this leads to music quality that appeals to the lowest common denominator.
