Go city of Seattle! The city has actually embraced technology in some really neat ways, more to come- and I will start an events calendar soon!City seeks music for phone lines, podcastThe Office is seeking a broad selection of locally-produced music for Seattle OnHold. This innovative program treats callers to local music when they call the city and are placed on hold. More than 10,000 city phone lines feature the music. OnHold also offers a free local music podcast. Listeners can buy music via iTunes, CD Baby and Amazon.com and link to featured musician's Web sites and concert calendars on the OnHold Web site.
To be considered in the next OnHold review cycle, submit an application by Jan. 27. For information on how to apply, visit the OnHold Web site. You can also suggest a band.
Get the podcast, and tell your friends. Or get friendly at the OnHold MySpace page.
Special SHOUT OUT to Picoso- awesome music, fun to dance to (and I grew up with the percussionist's wife- since 1st grade and lived with her in college- yeah Seattle's small, and friendship is long)!

This is really a great opportunity for local artists to get their music out there. I'll let my musical friends know. I hope they appreciate ALL types of music.
ReplyDeleteI was frustrated trying to find info from the city over the phone but then I was soothed by the voice of my good friend Rochelle House and her marvelous band!
