Q: I am wondering what are some of the best sites on the internet, artists can use to promote their music..aside from myspace?
A: a great resource for this is Bob Baker... www.thebuzzfactor.com - he gives out many valuable tips on marketing, and has some great books on the topic as well. Other great resource is the Indie Bible - www.indiebible.com - which lists many places you can get your music listed/played/reviewed.

'bout "'Bird"
Singer/voice teacher Vikki Flawith is a well-respected lyricist and a successful songwriter/composer for film & television. She specializes in world, techno-orchestral, electronica, and new age with a focus on creating music for sci fi, horror, suspense, drama and comedy. Over the past year she has signed over two dozen instrumental tracks to five different music libraries.
Ms. Flawith sang in church and school choirs from an early age, composing and performing solo folk music at Prince George's Knox United Church and on tour with the Prince George College Chorale. She began her voice studies with maestro Luigi Wood in 1990 and has trained privately in the Italian method since then. She coached with Bliss Johnston (Virago); attended Master Classes at the Vancouver Academy of Music with Phyllis Mailing; and trained with German-Australian tenor Gerhardt Zeller, Canadian soprano Catherine Lewis, and Canadian soprano Barbara Livingston.
Her credits include: Carmen, The Tempest, Lucia di Lammermoor (Pacific Opera Victoria, 03-04), M'alachim (Western Concert Opera); The Magic Flute (Vancouver Academy of Music); Carousel, Brigadoon, La Cage aux Folles (Theatre under the Stars); Faust, Die Mutter (Theatrespace); Hair (Vancouver Musical Theatre); Kiss Me Kate (Victoria Operatic Society); Toad of Toad Hall (West Niner's/Ldn, Eng); and Puss & Boots (Metro Theatre).
Ms. Flawith began teaching group vocal lessons in January of 1996 and established her own vocal studio in May of that year. In Vancouver, she taught at the Kerrisdale and Dunbar Community Centres (1996 - 1998) and at the Burrard Music Studio (1996 - 2002). In 1997 she established and directed Gospel Voices, a popular 6-week performance workshop for beginning singers, which was held several times in Vancouver.
With over twelve years experience in teaching, and over eighteen years of training, Ms. Flawith is a popular teacher and mentor who passionately believes that everyone can sing, if they wish to... and if they are willing to do the work. She specializes in working with those who have always wanted to sing, but have felt too intimidated to try.
