Firstly, the SellaBand manifesto: "The music industry is all about fences. Those who are on the inside, and those who are on the outside. SellaBand wants to break down all the fences. Everybody with a passion for music can be on the inside. It's your music. It's your choice."
So what is it, exactly? SellaBand aims to allow aspiring artists and music lovers to go into business together. The website serves as a social networking style platform where the artists can post their music and profiles and fans (or "Believers") can discover them. If they like what they hear, fans can invest in a SellaBand artist. Once they reach the USD $50,000 threshold, the artist is assigned an A&R representative, and gets the chance to record an album. The album is then printed and delivered to all the "believers" who invested in the project. On top of that, all fans and
artists share in any subsequent profit. Browse the full range of SellaBand titles here.
