I was hoping this website would allow us to upload a song for others to give us uplifting critiqes. However, I don't see where we can so I am assuming there is none and that perhaps the reason may be that we don't have enough members or interest in this website??? If that is the reason then perhaps songwriters who sing regular at open mic nights or clubs should mention this site so others can enter or listen and vote on music to enhance not only the sight but to help songwriters fine-tune their craft and generate interest in their style and get more performances. Also, send out a press release with all the facts to all media outlets: TV and radio stations; local papers; and local magazines. You may even consider passing out leaflets during performances or contact local record stores and ask if you can place your flyer in the bag of the customer who just bought something. Bumper stickers work sometimes but the cost is too much. Since this seems to be a non-profit orginization for communicating with fellow artist, you can and should apply for a grant to help fund this websites' theme by promoting music for starving artist. There are plenty of grants available; one must put on their thinking cap and do some research to see just what sort of grants will be of interest to you. Check the colleges for information and the SBA; but don't fall for those online sites that state you can apply for free as it's not free. All the information you need for a grant can be found in the library or at the colleges, where you should ask to place one of your flyers. Everyone loves music and when they get a chance to listen to new artist and their work and vote on it, the draw to come to this website will increase...so add a sight where artist can upload their material for the people to vote on.
If I'm wrong and you already have a sight to upload music, please let me know what I need to do to hit on that sight as I have plenty of folk-rock and folk music to be considered, and so does my wife and our friends in this business.
Thank you for your sight and your space for feedback.
