Indie Music Adventures

Bob Baker is a music marketing guru and if you aren’t familiar with his blog “Indie Music Promotion”, do yourself a favor and check out his Best of 2005 post.

You might be thinking, “Not another music promotion blog”! But the difference here is that we are actually a band trying to make it in the real world, not just someone trying to sell books. Don’t get me wrong, a lot of those guys share invaluable information, but if you want one source where the important stuff is compiled, you’ve come to the right place. We’ll also let you know what has worked for us and what hasn’t, and would appreciate comments about what has worked for you. The more knowledge shared, the closer we’ll all get to our goals!

The real reason I’m starting this blog is to provide a central place for my band members to learn about all the great information I keep finding online. That way they don’t have to directly know about guys like Bob Baker and David Hooper and sites like GarageSpin.com and RSS feeds.

Being in a band these days is pretty crazy. There’s so much to learn. My hope is that if we pool our resources (we meaning the guys in the band, but also bands helping out eachother) we can all share the weight and make the burden of the business end of our art a little less painful.
