OUR MISSION

       The purpose of mySoundSource.com is to promote local and independent music from all over the country in Boulder in order to create a wider range of diverse music for the community using an e-zine as a source for information. The website will be the most accessible and easiest way to get all of the information a music lover will need to know about the music playing in Boulder each month. mySoundSource.com will be like no other website. It will provide the Boulder community, mostly the ages between 18-30, with information about local bands, event updates, upcoming shows, and most importantly, biographies of local and independent bands that are being booked in Boulder. The website will provide:

For The Band :

• Links to independent and local band’s websites 
•  Links to biographies about the bands, written by a writer for the website 
•  Sound bytes of the band from one of their CDs 
•  A List of the band’s CDs and album covers

For The People Accessing The Website:

• A member application form for people to become a member of mysoundsource.com and receive discounts at Bart’s CD Cellar and concert tickets.
• Links to upcoming events being promoted by mysoundsource.com
• A message board and survey link in order to gain the public’s opinion about bands people like or dislike, what types of music they would like to see less or more in Boulder

For The Boulder Community : 

• Links to Boulder community organizations that are involved with music 
• Links to buy concert tickets directly on-line 
• Links to venues supporting independent music around the country 
• A link will be set up of 10 featured albums to buy this month
• A link of a Featured article that will be either an interview with an artist or an article about a band playing in the area.

      This method of promoting music will increase the amount of ticket sales if the ticket buyers know exactly what kind of music they are going to see. Ticket sales for venues will increase tremendously when 30,000 college students know what kind of music they are paying $10 a ticket to see. They will be able to buy all tickets for any venue on-line from one site and they will be able to listen to the band before even deciding to go to the show. The band will increase their sales of CDs, gain a following of people that enjoy their music, and will be able to book more shows. Record stores in Boulder will increase their sales of CDs as more people become knowledgeable about the bands playing in town and want to invest in their music. There are sponsorship opportunities available for companies and organizations to donate money.
