Good site to hear the lastest music and artists. The artist can also join Backstage Commerce, sell their music goods on thier own websites and in the Backstage store. They can also advertise and sell thier gigs. I like the idea of any tool where the artist can be more in control of as apposed to all the big record companies that just suck up all the profits. Don't really know too much about what kind of artists are actually listed hear but I see from posting and listings on other parts of the web that they are fairly visible.
