indieSOLO: get your band showcased
I just got an email from Johnny Ioannou, the founder of indieSOLO, a web site aimed at finding the best independent bands and musicians, and then showcasing them one artist at a time, each day. To have your band showcased, you must apply. If they like what they hear, then your band and music will be featured without any other bands for 24 hours, including your band's promo pic, a couple of songs and a brief bio. The site seems to be another tool to market your music, as on MySpace they say "it’s a destination for industry professionals, a place where they can uncover, book, and sign new talent." I don't know what their traffic numbers are nor who their audience is, or where their viewers are coming from, so it's hard to gauge how much value they can bring to your music. But the idea of presenting one band per day has promotional opportunities for you because it allows your music to be marketed without any other artists.
