Geoff Byrd has become the new poster child for indie music success. This Portland, OR-based artist is getting commercial airplay in several markets across the U.S. He's been on the covers of Billboard magazine and Radio and Records. He has a growing legion of fans.
I'm happy to consider him an e-mail pal and fellow warrior in the independent music movement. But unlike many musicians who are working toward a worthy vision of success, Byrd is actually doing it and reaching unheard of levels ... without official industry backing.
This week the San Diego Union-Tribune ran an article that serves as a good overview of his career and rising status. Read the printer friendly page here. If that doesn't work, try this link.
There's also a six-page article on him in the March issue of Unsigned Music Magazine and a piece on the Always On web site.
Read about Geoff Byrd and know that he is paving the way for many more indie success stories to come.
