Buzzz

This is what the people are saying.  Buzz is good, but buzz don’t work if you’re not out working it.   

 

There’s a buzz about Andy Zipf and it is building…” - http://www.xponentialmusic.org/sxsw07/

The hard work of relentless touring (over 200* dates since 2005), writing new material, building a solid fanbase and an ambitious fundraising effort that allowed him to work with established producer James Barber (Courtney Love, Ryan Adams, Aimee Mann), is at last paying off. There’s a buzz about Andy Zipf and it is building beyond his hometown of Washington, DC. It’s landed him on the Today Show, XM Satellite Radio, VH-1 and MTV. Winning Disc Revolt’s unsigned artist contest is now his ticket to a coveted SXSW showcase.

One key to his success has been taking charge of his career - joining the vanguard of young artists taking their clever promotion and tech savvy to new ways of reaching fans such as Podjacking (using an iPods broadcasting capabilities to send bursts of short targeted marketing messages). However, without talent, his efforts would be fruitless. Zipf’s stunning falsetto often leaves a crowd in wowed silence.

 

*It’s actually more like 350 now.
