The Mission District - New Song

Montreal pop band The Mission District have a brand new song, "Dancing All Alone," up on their Myspace, written to address teen bullying and in light of the great number of recent teen suicides. Fans are invited to interpret the song in their own way and make a video for it - all videos will be posted online. They hope to get the song on itunes soon and give a portion of the sales to an organisation helping youths dealing with bullying.

The band have been recording new material but have been keeping fans in the loop via blog tv sessions, where they chat and preview new songs. They currently have no tour dates, and it is hoped by many that they return to the UK soon.

My Major Company

A new scheme allowing fans to invest in artists of their choices has been launched in the UK by a record company, after success in Europe with something similar. My Major Company, started by three label scouts two years ago, lets people put as much money as they want on a band from the website in the hope that they'll 'make it'.

Once a band reaches £100k in investment, they will be able to record and release an album to a professional standard while the label, artist and investors get revenue back.

Find out more information on the My Major Company website. An article on this from The Sun can be read HERE.

NEW EVERYTHING !!!!!

We have had a change of name and will be known as Smile Affair from now on. We felt this suited us better and has a more positive meaning.

Apart from the change of the name, everything will continue as usual.

Thanks for all your continued support,

Example - Last Ones Standing VIDEO

We wouldn't usually include an already established artist on here, but Example is such a wicked guy and part of the ridiculously strong British urban music scene at the moment.

LAST ONES STANDING:



Following the success of Won't Go Quietly and previous single, the club anthem Kickstarts, Example is back with new single Last Ones Standing. His tour is already sold out on most of the dates. A great guy, I also strongly recommend following him on twitter.

ALL LINKS AND TOUR DATES CAN BE FOUND ON HIS BLOG HERE.

The Broadcast

I have personally seen The Broadcast a fair few times and the pop rock quartet are a strong recommendation. A band that gig tirelessly and visibly put their all into every show, The Broadcast have supported bands such as The Mission District, Twenty Twenty and My Passion as well as selling out venues on their debut headline UK tour back in April, which was followed up with a successful June tour. With ridiculously infectious tunes, their sets are packed with a passion and energy on a scale rarely seen by other bands and have secured The Broadcast an army of loyal fans. However, while progressing onto bigger and better things all the time, the band remain some of the most down-to-earth and lovely guys you could meet.

Party! Party! live at O2 Academy 2 Islington in April.

The band are currently writing new material. They have dates coming up with The Gap Year Riot, Go-X, Attack! Attack! and Dopamine. Tickets for their Newcastle show with The Gap Year Riot on 23rd August can be bought HERE. Check their myspace for dates in October and December.

Twenty Twenty - 'The "FANttASTIC" Tour'

Brothers Sam and Jack Halliday, along with Essex boy Sonny Watson-Lang make up Twenty Twenty, the band on everyone's lips at the moment as they have a ridiculous year, supporting the likes of McFly, Selena Gomez and Scouting For Girls and playing at the O2 Arena alongside such established acts as Tinchy Stryder and The Saturdays.

Twenty Twenty have written with David Rancourt, Josh Wilkinson and the people behind Alphabeat as well as recording their album with Sam Preston.


However, the band still put fans first, hanging out with them at shows and having many online chats. They also had a camera in-studio as they recorded their album so fans could be with them every step of the way via Blog TV.

The band have supported Saving Aimee and Go:Audio and with a few successful headline tours, often with many sold-out dates, under their belts, Twenty Twenty return with their 'FANttASTIC Tour' in October. All information is contained in the facebook event HERE.

Hailing from Manchester and formed only 2 months ago whilst slacking in class, 4-piece pop-punk outfit NeverForever are freshest on the music scene.

Although their EP has yet to be released, the band have already secured a loyal fanbase, and as they consider themselves more of a live band than on record, both their EP and any live shows are awaited with much anticipation.

- Hit us up with anything you want promoted and we'll stick it on our pages; we often do this without being asked anyway.

- You guys have an influence, so promote us and we can promote you and other bands better!

- As we're just starting out, if you had any knowledge on design, printing, promotion and putting on gigs, we'd be extremely grateful for the help.

- Just get in touch, we love hearing from you :)

Legally Rough

Hi, we're Legally Rough.

I figured we should do an introductory post about who we are and what we do, so here goes.
We're basically two girls, Anya and Tasha, who decided to make a company on a boring car journey around the Kingston area (really setting the scene here).

Seeing as we have no contacts, no experience, no equipment, no IDEA how to start or run a company, we're literally winging it and hoping to have a blast along the way ;)
So basically when we act like we're not taking it seriously, we're really just worried about our lack of skills, however with people's help and support, and our perseverance, we really hope something will come of this.

ANYWAY, WHAT DO WE DO ?
Well we're a clothing and promotions company. We're not sure which side to work on at the moment and we're in the early stages of both clothing designs and promotions but we hope to flourish in both sides of the company.

Apart from the clothing aspect, we are basically about spreading the word for unsigned or smaller bands, anything from retweeting their tweets to video interviews. Of course we will need promoting so we have some influence, however we're always happy to get the word out there :)

For now we're in the early stages, but in the future we will hopefully be getting a lot more interviews done, collecting reviews from people and even putting on gigs, as well as promoting our own apparel and maybe endorsing some bands.

So all that's left to say is, GET IN TOUCH !
....and helppp ?
