A YEAR’S SUPPLY OF SONGS UNDER THEIR BELT, BEATNIK TURTLE BEGIN “SONG OF THE WEEK CHALLENGE” FOR 2008
CHICAGO (January 3, 2008) – After successfully releasing a song a day for free on their website throughout 2007, Chicago-based band, Beatnik Turtle, begins“Song of the Week” campaign for 2008 on January 1, releasing a new song every Monday at TheSongOfTheDay.com.
Even after 365 song releases and over 150,000 song plays, the band’s following asked for more: “Some of them even wanted us to keep releasing a song every day,” said Randy Chertkow, the band’s saxophone player.”
The band is also releasing a book in 2008: The Indie Band Survival Guide: The Complete Manual for the Do-It–Yourself Musician through St. Martin’s Press in August to bookstores nationwide.
Made up of a community of musicians who share a similar musical vision, Beatnik Turtle released their fifth full-length CD, the office-themed All In a Day’s Work, in September 2007. They write, record and produce songs in their own studio as well as perform live.
