Night School Podcasting |
AudibleTreats reports: Following 5 sold-out
sessions and a write-up in the New York Times, it's become increasingly
more difficult to get into a session of Indie Night School. So, in the
spirit of community and free access to information, Indie Night School
is now available anywhere & anytime as an audio podcast.
INS is a music conference series that deals
with all the many aspects of running a band professionally, independently,
successfully, and ethically. The panels give people the chance to meet
decision-makers who run the music industry, ask them down-to-earth questions,
and receive straightforward answers. Each session seeks to explicate a
different aspect of the music industry, such as how the A&R process
works, how to find (or become) a band manager, how to get online and print
publicity, and how to find legal representation.[see full story for more]-

| Buckwheat
Aid |
conqueroo reports: One of Louisiana's leading
musical ambassadors, Buckwheat Zydeco, is joining with many others to keep
the sounds of Louisiana alive and help their neighbors back home as the
band participates in a number of major hurricane relief benefit concerts
and broadcasts in the next days and weeks.
Completing a nationwide five month tour
in support of Buckwheat Zydeco's new album, Jackpot! (Tomorrow Recordings),
Buck and the band had hoped to get home to their families after a Labor
Day appearance, ironically, at Seattle's Bumbershoot Festival (a bumbershoot
is an umbrella). But instead of a well deserved respite at home, Buckwheat
Zydeco will head first for Nashville and then New York City -- which will
virtually become a New Orleans in exile for at least a couple of weeks
in September.[see full story for more]- Click
