Please Join Evolvor Digital Music At ReverbNation

Evolvor%20Digital%20MusicQuantcastI have officially set up shop on ReverbNation as a “label”, although I’m really only just a “promoter”, because I don’t necessarily sign label-style contracts with my clients - I’m just a hired gun who handles web development, marketing, advertising, brand building - oh, all that label style promotion stuff, right.

Please head over to ReverbNation and become my fan - and stay tuned as the roster of artists begins to expand over the next few months. We’re at a point now where much of the work I’ve been doing behind the scenes is finally ready for launch, so they’ll be a lot to talk about - new music, new websites, new album launches, and new marketing and promoting strategies to discuss.

If you’re a musician and you’re not on ReverbNation, then you’re missing out BIGTIME. Seriously, the artist management tools they offer are really awesome if you’re doing things yourself - you can easily keep in contact with fans, start a street team, give away widgets and banners - plus, a system to track it all. The place is quickly proving to be the best music social networking tool for musicians, period.
