Amidst a sea of Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, BandCamp and other social media and music sites, musicians need to be extremely innovative when it comes to promoting their newest releases. Musicians need to think of exciting new ways to reach fans as it has almost become too easy to access music — to the point of people getting lost in a world of iTunes libraries, internet and conventional radio and local music scenes. Justin Branam has broken the mold with his new project, iPhone Sessions. Branam’s new project is made up of 3 brand new tracks and 2 that have previously been released. The real kicker here is that every last piece of iPhone Sessions was created on an iPhone. From the album cover, to the promotional videos, to the recordings themselves — all of which are incredible.
The EP will be available exclusively through Kickstarter to raise money for Branam to fund a new full length record. Kickstarter is a place for creative ideas to get recognized and funded for people who want to help make these ideas come to life — and get fun rewards while doing so. iPhone Sessions specifically has some additional incentives ranging from having your name featured in the album’s liner notes to having Justin play a concert in your living room, all depending the donation amount.
Not only is this EP a fun and creative project, but the method in which Branam is currently working on his music allows fans, both old and new, to get involved in a positive way. To check out iPhone Sessions and all things Justin Branam, check out the links below!
