"Officially Plugged In" Interview

Do you ever test a new song with fans online before you record it for an album?

I have not had the opportunity to do so really in the form of a "test", but I can relate to the question. As of now, I have not recorded or released an album. Typically, the way I write is introspectively and luckily I haven't had any adverse reactions to the songs I have released to the cultural phenomenon of...myspace. I have some tracks on other sites too, but I feel like most of my following was generated on myspace. I wouldn't be opposed to letting the fans hear certain tunes that we may not publically release on an album, but I don't think we will have much trouble deciding what to record and release when we're ready :)

How is the FanBridge service you use to keep in touch with fans?

What's fanbridge? Just kidding. To be quite honest, I don't use fanbridge. Maybe I should. We are actually recording next month so ...

maybe I will blast an email out and give everyone a heads up!

What are your favorite social networks or music online sites? Why?

Right now I would have to say Linked In and maybe Facebook. I don't use either very often and I actually have to re-activate my facebook account, but I feel like most of the sites out there have too much "spam" and they aren't geared for professionals. Not to say that there aren't plenty of great people out there or that the sites I am NOT mentioning are insignificant. There are plenty of promotional sites out there for artists and social networking for relatively anyone, but I think the best tool is to just reach out on a level playing field and talk to people about everyday affairs. Music is MY life, but not always theirs. It's rather boring to discuss topics that not everyone can relate to. At least when I write a song, I can discuss matters that most of the general population have encountered in their life and they find it comforting that I can express that.
