Indie Band Hub
We are a web site run by students who are committed to supporting local working bands in the Nashville area that can use some promotion, free web placement/downloads, and are interested in building the scene/community in Nashville.

We can help you by marketing web traffic to this site--then redirecting to your exisiting sites. Basically, we will aggressively market and direct traffic to this site for your exposure. This makes us a promotional distributor that focuses on a small community rather than a large national outlet such as Facebook/Reverb Nation, etc. (Have you ever tried to find a good local band on Myspace?) 

There is no cost to belong to this community. There is no commission or charge. This is a "non-exclusive deal," which means you may still sell on iTunes accounts or other web sites--we do not collect any percentage from any sales. This means we can only add to other existing sites you already have set up (myspace-itunes, etc.).

If we have a class in session and the class teams chose you--we can offer additional freebies such as photos, video clips, and posters. As their professor, I will also assign projects to these students--so let me know if you have a specific need. These are available if wanted and needed—FREE-- you just need to let us know, but these are available on a limited basis and priority (availability, location, and timing of semester, etc.). We need to be involved; we will not simply pay an invoice for you.

Only select bands will be approved as members. If you are interested in joining us, please submit our distribution agreement, then once approved, email several MP3's (ONE per email), along with your material (web site references i.e. myspace, etc.). You may cancel this agreement at any time for any reason.

Once you have signed on, we will need a 1) short bio, 2) small initial photos, and 3) some music you wish to upload.  We are all about exposure--free at the front end. As an incentive—artists that achieve a good amount of web sales, or views, may be approached to record a project, or additional music, or be included on our compilation-- at no charge to you as well—but this is "down the road."

Our vision is to create an opportunity for bands to communicate, share, and assist each other into each other’s markets as we grow. We are anxious to expose local bands in order to encourage a local music scene. We are in the growing phase.  If you know other bands that fit into this mix please forward our address.  A community is only as strong as it's members.  We are focusing on Nashville.

If you are a band member/artist and have exisiting recordings,CLICK HERE to be directed to our agreement page. Thanks!
