Spotlight on Amie Street!
Date: July 10, 2008
LAYAH JANE is featured and reviewed TODAY (July 10, 2008) in the ARTIST SPOTLIGHT on
http://www.amiestreet.com !
Read the full feature article here:
Amie
Street is a revolutionary online independent music store and network
that allows artists to sell music directly to their fans at a price
that varies according to demand. Fans earn credits by recommending
("REC"ing) songs to their friends. If the REC leads to other Amie
Street users purchasing the song, the price of the song will increase
up to $0.98. Fans will earn credit based on the increase in the price
of the song after making the REC, and the artist in turn earns more per
download thanks to the recommendations from their fans!
Please visit
http://www.amiestreet.com/
layahjane today to download and recommend our music!
It will help us gain momentum on Amie Street so we'll hopefully be featured again!
Many Thanks : )
