(PRWEB) May 29, 2004--Music Gorilla, a new and fast-growing resource in the
online repertoire of both independent musicians and label scouts, is helping
break down the invisible yet substantial barrier between labels and emerging
artists.
Built specifically for the needs of the A&R community, label reps sign written
commitments to screen artists from the Music Gorilla community. The artists
themselves upload their music to our server, and are assured that industry
professionals will hear their music, or else their membership fee is refunded!
In exchange for a low monthly fee (refunded when the artist brings others into
the fold,) Music Gorilla provides each of its artists with a full-service web
community, featuring unlimited music hosting, fan base building tools, a
personalized band store to sell CDs and merch, and more services being added
monthly. All this comes without any intrusive pop-up or banner advertising on
the site!
What is offered is a unique guarantee that each artist’s music will be heard by
select music industry insiders, from A&R reps at the biggest major labels to the
most select Indies. Six bands from the Music Gorilla community recently
showcased their songs LIVE for an A&R rep from Sony Records.
Music Gorilla’s unique service benefits all parties involved. Each artist gets
to post their state-of-the-art “online resume,” thereby gaining crucial exposure
to label insiders, and the labels get tipped off to talented artists. The
user-friendly, ad-free environment is also a significant draw for the label reps
and bands alike.
The response to the Austin-based company from up-and-coming artists has been
astounding. Membership has grown exponentially in the short time this service
has been active, and is on track to break expectations set by Music Gorilla’s
founders.

independent band to the next level, please contact Alexia Helfand at
