Grand Angel Interview - 1/4/10

by Tricksta at RAGO Magazine

Excerpt from the interview...

Do you think the internet helps or hinders independent artists?

Grand Angel: If used correctly, responsibly and socially... the internet is the most valuable tool for ANY market. The problem is not the internet’s accessibility to the artist or to music; it’s the fact that people are still “promoting” using the old-school methods, like excessive SPAM! People who like your music need to be able touch you and talk to YOU these days; you need a Twitter or a MySpace. I regularly give people my cell phone number! And I’ll answer as long as I’m not asleep or in the studio! Haha!"
