About Me

- The Dallas Music Guide is the number one online music magazine in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. It is updated every day with interviews with today's hottest music acts, album reviews, concert reviews, music news, contests, and notices about events of local interest.
- Interviews have included such household names as
John Travolta
Tenacious D
The Cure
Ice Cube
Jamie Foxx
Kevin Spacey, Pearl Jam, Cameron Crowe and Tom Cruise, Bo Diddley, Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard and Slash from Guns N' Roses.
- Local features have spotlighted acts with national interest like Flickerstick, South FM, The Polyphonic Spree, The Rocket Summer and Andy Timmons.
- Contests have involved companies like Sony Music, Warner Bros., Universal Music and Video Distribution, Interscope Records, BMG, EMI, Lionâ€™s Gate Films, Fox Searchlight, Island/Def Jam Records, United Artists, IFC Films, Geffen Records, ThinkFilm, Sundance Films, Fender and many more!
- Readership cuts across many demographics as all types of music are covered including rock, jazz, country, blues, rap, metal, folk, dance, Latin, electronic, and R&B. It is almost impossible to pigeonhole a "typical" reader.
- Photographs, interviews, and reviews have made their way on to sites around the world and some articles have even been translated into different languages.
- The Upcoming Shows section is among the most popular of the pages, as it has detailed Staff Picks and the most extensive show listing of ANY publication (print, or online) in the area. Several radio stations in the area refer to it when giving their weekly picks on the air.
- DART (Dallas Area Rapid Transit) advertising gives the DMG 21 million logo impressions a month. This includes bus sides, rail interior ads, windscreens, cornermarkers, LED, vinyl banners in the stations, Rider Insider ads, and PIDU cards. Also, we have random rotation of a banner on the front page of dart.org.
- The Dallas Music Guide feature in The Village Apartments magazine, 75206, reaches 10,000 residents a month.
- The DMG Street Team gives out CD samplers, stickers, postcards, buttons, posters, and other promotional items at various events in the DFW area.
- A weekly ad with the DMG logo runs in Quick (on Wednesdays) that reaches 150,000 people in the area. Bi- monthly, a 10,000-quantity flier run with the logo is passed out by the Quick Street Team.
