Independent Bands from U.K Partner with type3music for Chapel Hill
Concert
The Sea and GST Cardinals Perform at Local 506 on October 15, 2008

CHAPEL HILL, October 8, 2008--type3music presents is proud to
introduce The Sea and GST Cardinals to Chapel Hill music lovers at
Local 506 on Wednesday, October 15, at 9:30 PM. The cost of this
concert is three dollars ($3) at the door the night of the show. Fresh
off the heels of their brilliant performance at the Glastonbury Music
Festival this summer, and just before their upcoming CMJ Music
Marathon Showcase in New York, The Sea, accompanied by GST Cardinals,
are crossing the pond for a must-see event in Chapel Hill next week.
These two independent, self-funded bands are not represented by major
labels; they do not benefit from the support of the music industry.
Because they are truly dedicated to their craft, The Sea and GST
Cardinals are taking on the challenge to go 5000 extra miles in order
to develop their audience, armed with the belief that when the right
people come together, an extraordinary event can take place.

As part of the booking and promotion efforts required for their
individual US tours, The Sea and GST Cardinals have turned to
type3music, an organization that provides independent musicians with
the infrastructure they need to break free of an industry that does
not have their best interests at heart. In a time of big promotion
budgets and big marketing campaigns, independent artists who don't
have access to those resources struggle to break through. type3music,
in collaboration with Local 506, offers The Sea and GST Cardinals the
support usually reserved for major label artists, providing them with
the opportunity to arrive in the heart of Chapel Hill, where they can
spread their word through their art and reach a public that craves
unique, noteworthy performances of Glastonbury proportions.

Because of its absolute dedication to the welfare of musicians,
type3music will waive the $3 cover charge for those who bring a friend
to this event, since artists need to reach as many new potential
listeners as possible when arriving to a new city they have never
played before. Through the power of word of mouth, more and more music
fans can now seize the opportunity to discover something new,
something they have never heard before, something that might very well
change their lives, while helping artists grow the audience they need
to survive. By coming to this concert, music fans will not only
discover two bands of higher caliber, but they will also know that
they are participants in a process that directly benefits musicians
who truly need their support. They will have done the right thing.
