// A WORD FROM THE EDITOR:

Before beginning today’s newsletter folks, I’d like to apologize for the radio silence last week. This year has been absolutely mental, and we’ve been so busy building out the rest of the V1LLAG3 (more on that soon) that we hadn’t published enough new Promo material in time to make last week’s edition.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s important to repeat yourself from time to time, but when it’s the only option, that becomes a problem — the phrase “repeat all, not repeat one” comes to mind.

On that note: I’d like to thank you for reading this newsletter. You’ve got no shortage of noise around you. Chances are you’re swamped with options for learning about music promotion, and yet you’re reading this.

And for that, you’re a star already as far as I’m concerned.

Alright, on to the show.

Hard-hitting advice that cuts through the bullshit and arms artists with what they really need to thrive in this sharkfest of an industry.
