Greetings to You, Dear Reader.

We are Tony & Tess, both part of the Member Relations department here at Sonicbids. Some of you may already be familiar with us (you may have even spoken to us on the phone), but since we have this spiffy new SonicBlog, we thought a more formal introduction would be appropriate. We both went to school for audio production and recording technology, and we both enjoy painting and are obsessed with all things music.  However, Tess went more toward the business side of things—with experience in radio and band promotion—while Tony went into live performance and media production.  Naturally, we ended up together here at Sonicbids.

Many of the artists selected through Sonicbids were part of the Emerging Artist Series at Summerfest.  After selecting the first round, Summerfest ran a voting application through us where fans could vote for their favorite band. (more…)
