The good folks at the Vassall-Gore Law Firm/Entertainment Law told me about this music business promotion grant. I had to pass this music business information along to my readers.
N.Y.L.A. Entertainment Group Announces $5000 in Music Promotion Grants Available to Record Labels, Artists
ATLANTA, GA, May 16, 2008 -- In a time where music sales are suffering and independent artists face larger obstacles to breaking into the music industry, N.Y.L.A. Entertainment Group is making available $5,000 in music promotion grants available to record labels and artists. The grant can be used towards in-house music promotion and/or marketing services including: record label consulting; music servicing to DJs, tastemakers, & record pools; marketing plans; project management; and select PR services. Record labels can apply online at www.NYLAEntertainmentGroup.com/prgrant.htm.
Deadline to apply is 11:59 pm on June 16, 2008, and applicants will be notified of their acceptance or denial status no later than July 16, 2008. All completed applications received by the deadline will be notified of their acceptance or denial status by July 16, 2008. Grant is not available to current or former clients of N.Y.L.A. Entertainment Group. Only 1-3 record labels/artists will be awarded the grant based on need & project viability. All others who have been denied will receive a 50% discount on the same services.
"I decided to offer this music promotion grant because the music business as we know it is dying a fast death, and we're now entering the new world of Music Business 2.0. There's a new way of promoting music and those that have caught on are doing well, but unfortunately, many artists and labels, particularly independent artists, still lag behind. Ultimately, there will continue to be a wider gap between those who do it well and have sizable budgets and those trying to break into the industry. So, this music promotion grant is sort of my way of continuing the education so to speak. Admittedly, there's still a lot to be learned about these emerging trends transforming the industry, but it takes a keen mind to be innovators and progressors." Fabiola Fleuranvil, CEO of N.Y.L.A. Entertainment Group.
