Text NBS to GETME (43863)

Teenage brothers, Tourie Escobar and Damien Escobar are a true phenomenon of our musical age. They combine the classical sound of the violin with Pop, R&B and Hip-hop. The result is a unique and uplifting fury of modern emotion and harmony, intensity and rhythm. Younger brother Damien says, We play our violins so hard and with such force that we destroy a bow a show! Together, the Escobar brothers are NUTTIN' BUT STRINGZ (NBS). They both attended the legendary Juilliard School of Music in New York City where they were able to hone their craft and find their place. Their mission is to bridge the gap between Popular and Classical music.

A Lesson In Building Community (Or A Love Letter To Rob Gordon & What Are Records?)
Note: This blog is reprinted from Ariel Cyber PR. Ariel Hyatt is one of our favorite resources for musicians to help you understand how to market your music. You can find her at http://www.arielpublicity.com.

Hello from the Rocky Mountains! I am in Colorado this week taking some time to reflect on the whirlwind that has been my life for the past two years. I lived here for seven years and founded Ariel Publicity here.And lots of great memories have come flooding back. I have been spending time with Rob Gordon - my first boss at the only record label I ever worked at What Are Records? What I learned at What Are Records? has set me up for a successful career in the new music business and that is because of Rob's genius around building community.

Microfundo - Microfunding - Ask your fans to fund your next project!
Adva Mobile
Here's a great idea! Have your fans support you and your projects (touring, recording, etc.) in exchange for VIP Access and Exclusive Perks. Microfundo is an organization that applies the microfinance model to music in order to support independent musicians struggling to make it in the developing world. Your fans lend you money to finance your project. Microfundo collects the funds and then passes them along to you once you have reached your goal. Over time you should be able to repay the loan via sales of digital downloads of your music that is distributed through Microfundo's media partners at National Geographic and Mondomix.
Microfundo plans to use mobile marketing services from Adva Mobile to collect money for Artists Projects right at concert events, where the Artist - Fan connection is strongest. And, Microfundo plans to help fans discover emerging artists on their mobile phones by promoting artists geographically, through the Microfundo Mobile Fan Club. Text microfundo to 43863 - GETME - to check out their mobile page. They're also at www.microfundo.com and our joint press release is here.
