    Hey we are a Dublin band looking for a manager with useful contacts in the Irish music scene. We are committed, motivated, talented and we won't waste your time. Our style would be essentially pop-rock but with blues, soul and funk elements. Here's some links to our music online...

    Our website
    http://www.milkthegroup.com
    Our myspace
    http://www.myspace.com/milkmyspacemusic
    Our youtube channel
    http://www.youtube.com/milktubemusic

    I'll give you some information on what we've done while together;

    Gigs:

    We formed in September 2009 and have since played most of the usual music venues around Dublin (some we have headlined and others we supported); Whelans, The Village, Eamon Dorans, Bruxelles, Porterhouse, Le Cirk, MB Slatterys, UCD Student Bar. We also played to a 700+ crowd at a University College Cork ball in February and have been booked for Phantom FM's First Friday in the Academy on August 6th and a number of festivals this summer, Dublin City Soul Festival, Cavan Summer Festival and Kinsale Arts Week.

    Media:

    We did a few radio slots at very minor stations like Near FM, Phoneix FM, Real Radio 100.3 FM and we made the shortlist for Most Promising New Artist at the Meteor Awards (we did not make the nominees however).

    Internet Promotion:

    We have been reasonably successful in this area. Our youtube videos have collectively garnered over 30,000 views and have recieved an overwhelmingly positive response. Our myspace has over 40,000 views.

    CDs

    We are currently recording our debut EP

    Why we need your help?

    We have no problem getting gigs but we do have a problem getting GOOD gigs ie. gigs in venues that aren't 'pay to play' (in other words playing in front of a load of your friends while some publican makes a fortune off them). We need to get more gigs at venues, events and festivals where there is an inbuilt crowd and support slots with popular Irish acts or small international acts.     Radio exposure is another area we need help in.

    Please PM if interested!

    If you are interested please PM, Cheers!
