The Indie Bible [Big Meteor Publishing - 2002]
[img1r]
David Wimble has published the 3rd edition of "The
Indie Bible," perhaps the most complete guide for independent musicians
aiming to get their music reviewed, listened to, played on the radio, sold,
and downloaded. With over 6,000 contacts arranged by category, those
hell-bent on success are sure to find new and interesting resources in their
quest. Buying a copy won't guarantee a gold record, but it will give those
willing to devote time and energy to promotion numerous ideas and outlets
for exposure. It also serves as an excellent resource for anyone that is
directly related to helping bands and artists gain exposure, like promoters
and labels.
