Piping Hot Fresh from Kristin Hersh and ThrowingMusic:
CASH Music Project – An Introduction
ThrowingMusic is happy to announce an entirely new musical endeavor. We’re calling it the Coalition of Artists & Stake Holders, or the “CASH Music Project”. CASH Music represents a new music business model which we hope you’ll not only support but also help us shape, by sharing with us your thoughts, suggestions & opinions.
Over the next couple of weeks, we will come to you with a new kind of offering from Kristin. We’re planning lots of great new content, including a brand-new studio recording posted to Kristin’s blog every month — free of charge.
We’re committed to not holding music hostage, the music will be free. We’ll be asking for donations and offer you the opportunity to subscribe to Kristin’s career — past, present and future.
The business of music clearly needs an overhaul. We’re going to present our ideas – and with your help, we’ll endeavor to create a sustainable, fair-trade music business model.
This will be a strictly independent and self-sustaining venture – for better or for worse. No record label, no distributor, no middle-man – just Kristin, the songs and you.
We’re hoping to finally take the leap and see what all of us together, as a small but enthusiastic community of ‘stake-holders’ can do for ourselves.
Thank you for reading this far — we’ll be in touch soon!
I can’t wait to see what happens next, and not just because I heart all things Kristin.
