Introduction Welcome to
the November Indie Contact Newsletter.
First off, I'm
extremely happy to announce that it's the 10th Anniversary
of The
Indie Bible!
Thanks to everyone that has supported
us these last ten years. It's hard to believe that so much
time has passed since the First Edition rolled off the
press.
The new 2009 Edition is now available online
at http://www.indiebible.com
In this month's article, Bill Pere of the CT
Songwriters Association presents an excellent article on
the importance of promoting the digital versions of your
music. Music consumers are switching repidly from CD buyers
to track buyers...and Bill provides some key tips on how to
take advantage of this new trend.
FInally, in last
month's newseltter there was a listing for You Rock Radio.
The owner of You Rock (Aaron) contacted me and let me know
that he had a major server crash before he had a chance
to back up the music that was sent to him. He sends his
deepest apologies and asks that anyone that sent their
music to him last month, please resend
it.
Remember, If you have a service
that can help out artists or songwriters and would like to
be listed in this newsletter, please don't hesitate to get
in touch. Just e-mail your details to indiecontactnewsletter_at_rogers_dot_com
As
is the case every month, there is a large group of new
contacts that can help you to gain more exposure for your
music. So dig in and enjoy the November edition of the
Indie Contact Newsletter!

Wimble Editor, The Indie Contact Newsletter indiecontactnewsletter_at_rogers_dot_com
