Invest in Music – SellABand.com is Democratizing the Recording Industry

The recording industry has long been a corrupt, artist unfriendly business model. Tantalizing recording contracts are given to only a chosen few at incredible cost to themselves. Horror stories are told of familiar recording artists actually coming away from a career in debt.

You can help by investing in not only a new Indie band but in one of the most innovative music websites we’ve seen. www.SellAband.com is an alternative to the conventional ways groups get signed to record contracts. Using SellAband you can invest as little as ten dollars for a single share in a group. You choose which group by listening to the music from a participating band that has uploaded their demo. If that group gets enough votes (shares) they get signed to a record thanks to SellABand.com. The process at once simple and clever it makes you wonder nobody has thought of something like this before.
