1- Anyone who is interested in handling publishing and mechanical rights
2- People to act in a manner of an A&R , preferably from as many different states as possible.
3- Any musician, or engineer who has access or is experienced in sound recording willing to help with recording, mixing, or mastering either hands on, or via the internet using a simple multitrack tool like audacity. Setting up a studio that achieves very good results can almost be done in a closet these days.
4-Writers willing to collaborate with music composers who are working on projects to be submitted, and musicians needing writers to help add the right lyrics to their work.
5- Graphic artists and photographers to help develope concepts for CD covers.
6- Anyone with any radio contacts at all, whether it be internet radio, satelite radio or commercial radio that is willing to help promote independents.
7- Anyone with legal knowledge of the music buisness who can offer advice either to the artists, or anyone connected with this project.
8- Any distributor that promotes and distributes music disitally or by physical product who is willing to work with us on a sales contingent basis.
9-I hate the term street teams, but everybody understands the term. Everyday people with myspace sites; tagworld sites; personal websites. If you find an artist you like, admire, respect, and believe in please promote them on your site. Build a site dedicated soley to them and help promote them. Fifteen minutes a day can make a world of difference.
This is all going to be on a volunteer basis done by people with integrity willing to help advance independent artists. And what better way to advance your own career than to have your name listed in the credits of a work that could possibly turn out to become a major event. There are no promises, but if you never try you never achieve.
