PopSmash PR specializes in publicity and booking for rock, indie, alternative, punk, and folk rock bands in the Midwest. We have more than 15 years of experience in public relations and will work with you to reach your promotion goals. We also act as publicity liasions for bands outside of the Midwest who need a Chicago rep to help build local support.This quote sums up our goals pretty well:"Next to music, image is perhaps the most important aspect of a recording artist's career. The way a particular artist looks and feels, thinks and reacts to situations plays heavily upon the way the public views that person, and many times, creates an appeal equally as important as the music. But unless the artist is so unique a talent or a personality before embarking on a recording career, it is up to the publicist to create an image that will catch the public eye and lure them into giving this artist a chance to be heard.Publicity is an art in itself, distinguished by those in the profession who have achieved credibility formulating an image within the bounds of reality from those who merely "hype" false praise."--from the Making of Superstars by Robert Stephen SpitzWhat We Can Do For You
