Are YOU an Established or an Aspiring Performer?

LET US HEAR FROM YOU!
 



As many of you are aware, several of our WTB/TMA membership are professional or part-time performers. Several well-known bands and individual performers are represented at our jams. Thanks to the professionalism they contribute, WTB/TMA jams offer growth opportunities to us strictly amateurs. It is our hope to lend support and exposure for these groups as well. One of the aims of WTB/TMA is to support and encourage local talent.

Sooooo, if YOU or others you know of, have a group comprised of local talent ("local" being anywhere between New York & Hollywood! -- but primarily West Texas & Eastern New Mexico) LET US KNOW!!! We'd like to know the name of your group, who the members are, where you're from, something about your style & experience, CD's, website, and how we can get in contact with you. We'd love to share your information here.
 
We also receive requests time-to-time from people wanting to book performers. We'd love to recommend from within our membership. We just gotta know who you are!!!

Also, you SONGWRITERS . . . Some of you have shared your original music at our jams . . . We'd like to know about you. There are probably many, many of you "closet" composers who might benefit from the opportunity to share your music with others or even to seek publication, distribution, performance contracts (and pay!) of your original works.
