te! music presents SING OUT LOUD

Tomasian Ent! (te!), a multi-faceted internet based entertainment company, is pleased to announce the creation of the CD “Sing Out Loud”, a compilation of original music. The goal of the CD is to promote and provide exposure to the music of LGBTQI artists and artists whose music is of interest to the LGBTQI Community.



The CD will be sold via CD Baby, Amazon, I-Tunes and other internet based merchants. The income generated will help cover the cost of producing the CD. A portion of the proceeds will also be donated the charitable LGBTQI and HIV/AIDS organizations. The CD will also be sent to over 300 gay and lesbian radio stations as well as internet radio stations and genre specific programs.



Since the chosen artists will allow us to distribute their music royalty-free, artist must own their submitted track(s) - no mechanical licensing fees will be paid. Proceeds from the sale of the CD’s will cover the production costs, so no additional costs above the normal submission fee will be charged to artists.



Artist royalties will be generated through terrestrial radio and internet airplay (BMI/ASCAP), which te! will aggressively pursue on artists’ behalf. In addition, selected artists will receive 10 copies of the CD for their own use.



Submissions are open to a variety of genres including: Rock, Alt. Rock, Acoustic Rock, Pop, Jazz, Blues, Folk, Alt. Country, World, Reggae, and Hip Hop.



All submissions will receive a review even if not selected for the compilation. There are ten slots reserved for Sonicbids artists!
