Posted on April 11, 2011 by Michael Brandvold

PromoteYourMusic.net just posted a interview they did with me. Be sure to check out Chris’ site, he a lot of valuable information for bands and musicians.

Michael’s blog is one of my favourite places to find up to date music marketing information, that is totally practical and easily actionable.

He has a wealth of experience in the music business, and has been right on the front line helping superband KISS with their massively successful website..

You should also check out his new podcast with Brian Thompson of Thorny Bleeder Records, as first impressions suggest that it is going to become a rock solid ideas factory for musicians.

Michael Brandvold + Brian Thompson = Musical Awesomeness!

Enjoy,

- Chris

What marketing lessons could you learn from Gene Simmons and the iconic rock band KISS? If you’re Michael Brandvold, a lot.

In 1998, Gene Simmons tapped Michael to build and launch KISS’s first official website. He then proceeded to grow KISSonline into a multi-million dollar enterprise with over a half million visitors a month.

Michael also helped launch VIP Platinum Ticket Programs, which handled ticketing programs, online branding, marketing, and sales efforts for U2, Motley Crüe, Rod Stewart, Madonna, Ozzy Osbourne, Jessica Simpson, Britney Spears, and more.
