About GarageSpin
Social media junkie, online marketer, singer/songwriter, and dad-to-be, GarageSpin (i.e. Mike) tracks technologies empowering independent artists in a web 2.0 world. GarageSpin is also recording his first album…all from the comfort of his living room.
Artists now write, collaborate, record, produce, promote, share, sell, and perform music online. It’s an incredible time to be a songwriter or musician, and an amazing time to be a fan of independent music.
