Mike Errico, “Everybody Knows”

Mike Errico, “Everybody Knows”

Stare out of the window all you like Tell me how you can’t get there from here Wear out all your welcoming delights And grieve the ones that whisper in your ear Hide away where you cannot be found Tell me how you’ll never learn to fly Talk a circle perfect and profound Please don’t dare to look me in the eye You are scared We all are scared We’re brought here naked Unprepared And everybody knows Stare out of the window all you like And draw the shade if you can’t take the view Make a wish upon this starless night Please don’t try to drag me down with you Buy it here: http://mikeerrico.bandcamp.com/track/everybody-knows From “Wander Away,” on Tallboy 7, Inc.

How to Get Your Music on Pandora: Enter the Meatspace

How to Get Your Music on Pandora: Enter the Meatspace

It’s nice to get tweets and emails like, “Hey Mike, I was on Pandora, and you came up! That’s cool!” True, it’s cool that people get to listen. For Pandora, that’s a “satisfied customer.” For me, that’s also a “satisfied customer.” Hell, for the CUSTOMER, that’s a “satisfied customer.” I love nothing more than when everybody wins. But honestly, I wasn’t 100% sure how songs (including mine) get on Pandora, so I poked around. (BTW, if this is boring industry stuff, I found a picture of a righteous pony. Here ya go. Sweet, right?) 1) Anyway, in order to be on Pandora, you need to be selling PHYSICAL copies via AMAZON. (http://help.pandora.com/customer/portal/articles/24802-information-for-artists-submitting-to-pandora) Why? No clue. My guess? Something to do with metadata, or paperwork, or authentication or something Pandora is farming out. Whatever. I have plenty to say about that, but I’ve deleted it. OK, so I kept going. How do you sell physical copies of a CD on Amazon, in order to get on Pandora? 2) To sell physical copies via Amazon (by my research, anyway): $29.95 per year plus a 55% standard commission http://advantage.amazon.com/gp/vendor/public/join-advantage-music 2.5) You can, if you like, press CDs specifically to sell on Amazon so that you can get music on Pandora. http://www.amazon.com/gp/seller-account/mm-product-page.html?topic=200354370 I’ve decided just to give the facts, without editorializing. Hope I’ve saved some of you some time. Best, M Signed copies of “Wander Away” are available at the official Mike Errico store.
