Veronicas Veil is a great sounding band from the Jacksonville, Florida that has a great rock sound. We hope to be able to do a feature on them in the next few months, but wanted to promote a few of their upcoming events, including tomorrow. If you are in North Florida and have not heard of Veronicas Veil, do not miss this chance to see them.

If you do not know who Tim Sweeney is, you probably should if you are reading this blog. Because if you are reading this blog, you are interested in music, or involved in music and artist development or an artists yourself.

===============================================================

It’s funny that whenever an artist comes out with a new release they always claim it to be their best work. Being an artist myself, I could easily say the same thing about the new documentary, 800 CDS (www.800CDsTheMovie.com). However, I would have to add that it is also one of my most important pieces of work.

800 CDs is about YOU and the struggle you go through to get more attention and exposure for your music. This documentary features strategies I have personally taught to some of the most successful music artists. It will help you focus on the most important things in your career including how to build a community of fans and other artists who will work together with you instead of trying to be your competition.

If you have ever had left over CDs from your previous releases or you have not been able to make it to my workshops or Music Strategies, this film will show you what you have been missing!

Please order an “Advanced Copy” of this great documentary at www.800CDsTheMovie.com and call me at 951-303-9506 with your thoughts after watching it.
