Profile Information

Band or Company Name:

Bob Baker / TheBuzzFactor.com

Style of Music:

I'm a big fan of power pop and crafty songs a la Elvis Costello, Squeeze, and Crowded House. But I grew up rockin' out to Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull, etc. I've been a singer, songwriter and guitar player since my teens and have put out three indie releases with various bands over the years. Click "Sin Is On Your Face" in the player above to hear one of my more recent original songs.

Hometown:

St. Louis, MO

About Me:

I'm an author, indie musician and former music magazine editor dedicated to showing musicians of all kinds how to get exposure, connect with fans, sell more CDs, and increase their incomes. My books include "Guerrilla Music Marketing Handbook," "MySpace Music Marketing," "Unleash the Artist Within" and "Branding Yourself Online."

Everything I've done has been on my own (without label help). Thanks for everything. What do you think about putting one of my songs up on your site here? Just a thought. Take care.

This site is a great idea. I also loved the podcast with Derek Sivers. He always speaks the truth about how indie artists fit in the world. Keep up the great work!
