Exclusives, exclusives

Hey friends!

I just wanted to tell you about all the great exclusives we've been getting here at Speakerheart.

Lately we've been joining up with artists around Nashville to help promote their newest albums before they release to the world.

So far we've partnered up with The Worsties for Put Your Babe On and Red White Blue for their self-titled album.

It's great being able to promote our artists in these kinds of deals and we'd love too keep on keepin' on. So if you're one of our artists and are interested in doing an exclusive release with us, shoot us an email at info@speakerheart.com.

We'll see what we can do to put your name in front of the masses.

A New Look

We're excited to announce we've got a new and improved version of our site launched! So head on over to www.Speakerheart.com and check out the new duds.

First off, you'll find our homepage has had a facelift. There's a nice grid of New Artists and you can catch a glimpse of our Top Artists.

But probably the most exciting facet of this build is the search capabilities. Now you can scavenge through our catalogue by specific genres like Rock, Indie, Folk and Pop. Plus when you're at your favorite artist's storefront, a list of similar artists pops up. This means you can find more of what you like without all the hard labor!

We hope you like the new look. We're still in Beta mode, so if you come across any problems or if you have a question or you just want to say "Hi," we'd love to hear from you. Get ahold of us at info@speakerheart.com.

The "New" Orleans

Well, they may not be "new" but they're bringing some fresh material to the table.

'70s pop band Orleans has found a new home right here at Speakerheart. You might remember their hits "Dance With Me" and "Still the One," but it's time to take a look at what they've been up to since the '80s.

With a career spanning three decades, these New Yorkers have had plenty of time to hone their skills and create some smooth tunes.

Visit their Speakerheart storefront at www.speakerheart.com/orleans to hear remakes of their old classics and hot new hits from recent releases.
