This site is dedicated to local independent artists and entertainers. When, I say local that means Ohio and all states in a close proximity it. In these crudely constructed web pages, you will find a variety of information on making music, contacts, other internet sites, music scenes, bands, clubs, labels, studios, etc, etc...This is your information as well as ours. We spend many hours web-surfing for porn, Uh, I mean researching these web sites and e-mail addresses. Please use it for your purposes if they are genuine. If you have something that you think we should know about, or a suggest about how to improve our site, don't hesitate to let us know.

Bands:

We provide many services for bands. We do booking, promotion, live sound, recording, video recording, photography, and web page design. What we need from you is a demo, professionally mastered or done on your boombox, whatever you got. Please send a promo kit including a bio, photo, and all relevant material about your project. Let us know where you're at now, and where you'd like to be in the future. Style? Just about everything is accepted (see below). We can find you a studio, sound guy, promoter, booking agent, graphic designer, whatever your needs are. Please check out the Important Connections page for some of these people. All artists will be added to our Featured Artists page.

Clubs, Radio, Labels, Studios, Other Misc Music Personnel:

We got bands that want to play and be heard. Please check out our Featured Artists page. Music styles vary from rock, metal, dance, alternative, hip-hop, folk, blues, rap, experimental, techno, psychedelic, punk, funk, ska. Chances are there is something you will like. Please take time to fill out the Survey. This will be sent to an international database of clubs, radio, studios, labels, promoters, etc... located in the Musicians Assistance Site (http://www.musicianassist.com/), and make it easier for us to get you the bands you want to hear. Don't have a web site? We can cook you one up, no problem. Let us know how we can help you.
