The Album Project @ SXSW [2010]

Monday, March 15th, 2010

That’s right. SXSW music starts this week and The Album Project will be there. I’m still unsure about what kinds of things I’ll post, but if there are any bands or events I just can’t miss please leave though suggestions in the comments.

SXSW 2010 Panel Voting

Friday, September 4th, 2009

The Album Project has suggested a panel for SXSW 2010 and we’d love it if you voted for it. The panel would cover the same idea I’ve been trying to hammer home through the different articles about digital distribution. The idea that labels and/or bands should be embracing the digital format by releasing albums as soon as they are finished with them.

You can see our panel suggestion here, as well as vote there for it.

Any help, either voting for or spreading the word, would be huge. Thanks so much.
