    Baby steps

    By heyyou  |  Posted June 4, 2009  |  Houston, Texas
     

    As a band on a very small label we don’t earn a lot of money yet. But we have to take pride in each small step achieved.

    We’ve toured through the Midwest.

    Generated some local and national press.

    We got our debut CD out.

    We’re currently on tour in Europe

    We’re getting radio play

    We’ve generated interest from other larger labels

    We’re talking with several film placement agencies about getting our songs in TV and film.

    Yesterday was kind of a cool thing, we were picked to be the artist of the day on MP3 Germany we were featured along side Green Day and Papa Roach. Not a huge deal, but having just landed in Berlin on May 12 & just uploaded our CD to the digital download site on May 20 it’s a big deal for them to have noticed us that quickly.

    Its not much but you have to celebrate each victory in this business to motivate you to get to the next one.
