Hey everyone! My name is Mike and I've been in touring bands since I was 16. I also started doing freelance writing and PR/Marketing stuff inbetween touring and recording. I know how it is being in a band and on a budget so I'm willing to work with and help anyone I can.

Recently I've gotten bands featured in AMP Magazine, Substream Magazine, on MTV's Silent Library and a ton of other stuff. Also have written up web copy for a ton of bands myspace pages including bios, one sheets, etc. Feel free to shoot me an email at reckroompr@yahoo.com if you have any questions about anything.
