I really enjoyed seeing our single Valley Of Grey on 15 Spotify playlists, including several lists where it was Top 10 and in a couple of instances #1. The interviews I was afforded on various podcasts and radio stations were valuable experience too. And the write ups we got in the music blog reflected very well on the band. For the budget, I would say this is a very fair level of promotion for a startup band, as it would be unrealistic to expect write ups in Rolling Stone or interviews with top radio stations in the major markets. The only reason I didn't give my experience five stars is because my project manager balked at the beginning of the campaign when I inquired about a live conversation on the phone so that we could become acquainted. It seemed reasonable to me to develop a rapport with the person handling our campaign, rather than be asked "What is the phone call pertaining to?" Also, one of the interviews I did was a Q&A in print and it appeared in what looked like Music Week, but was actually a much much smaller circulation blog; it felt like a knock off that was meant to make me think I was in a big publication. All in all, I think this was a worthwhile move and I got a personal call from a higher up at Starlight named Marc Carlton who was very generous with his time, very honest, and showed a lot of integrity. Also, the sound bites from the interviews and the screen grabs from our placement on the Spotify playlists helped me create a terrific promo for the band in serving as a profile piece on us.
