Indie Music Promotion, Online PR for Indie Rock & Student PR for Indie Bands
Quite Great has been helping acts develop through a series of releases for many many years. We have worked with independent/indie music labels and artists from around the world , we have found that the most important things indie bands and artists want is a feeling of security knowing that their team will follow regular team discussions and that their development is not left to one person who is a jack of all trades but a master of none , they want a team who will approach online media , radio and print media in line with plan agreed and also to do it within a budget that will not break the bank because we all know that creating a business model out of download sales alone is virtually impossible.

Whether you yearn to be in Vive Le Rock, on Radio X, introduced at Radio 1, profiled on Pitchfork or just developed in your local area initially, it is all about working together in an organised manner. Target areas would tend to include sites such as Clash, Stereoboard, Supajam, Line of Best Fit, Louder than War, Culture Fly, Noisey), 6 Music, Planet Rock and BBC London (not national but key gateway for national BBC). Then through to areas such as NME, DIY, Q Mag, Clash Mag. Understandably these are highly competitive but through building up coverage we will look to put the band in a great position to approach them.
So when it comes to indie music we feel in the past two decades we have experience in pretty much all styles of the music genre from…..now take a deep breath…Adult Alternative Pop/Rock, Alternative Country-Rock, Alternative Dance, Alternative Pop/Rock, Ambient Pop, American Underground, British Trad Rock, Britpop, C-86, Chamber Pop, Cocktail, Cold Wave, College Rock, Cowpunk, Darkwave, Dream Pop, Electro-Industrial, Emo, Emo-Pop, Dark Folk, Funk Metal, Garage Punk, Goth Rock, Grunge, Indie Electronic, Indie Folk, Indie Pop, Indie Rock, Industrial, Industrial Dance, Jangle Pop, Lo-Fi, Madchester, Math Rock, Neo-Glam, Neo-Psychedelia, New Wave/Post-Punk Revival, New Zealand Rock, Noise Pop, Paisley Underground, Post-Grunge, Post-Hardcore, Post-Rock, Psychobilly, Punk Blues, Punk Revival, Punk-Pop, Queercore, Retro Swing, Riot Grrrl, Sadcore, Screamo, Shibuya-Kei, Shoegaze, Ska-Punk, Skatepunk, Slowcore, Space Rock, Third Wave Ska Revival, Twee Pop, Visual Kei…have we missed anything? Let us know when we chat, ok? In addition to the targeting and planning , it is a case of coming up with clever PR and that can only be found by a relationship where we can really get to the reasons why you have created the sound and the songs that make you as a band or artist and then how we can use these to hit the media so we can get you valuable coverage.
Over many years we have helped acts create coverage from eco-friendly packaging, emblazoning speakers onto the side of a tour bus, streaming music to the world from strange locations, getting parkour exponents to profile new tracks in a truly impactful way, arranging a world tour for the media where the band don’t leave their immediate town…you get the idea! We try and come up with ideas that hep you get noticed, we are not really one of those ‘here’s a picture of me with a pint at a gig’ type team, we just get focused, get on with it and work with you to get you the impact you need.
Give us a call on skype – quitegr8 or email ask@quitegreat.co.uk so we can see if we have the team to match your needs.
Student PR
Here at Quite Great we have extensive links across student media whether in radio, online and print publications and TV. Students represent some of the most important tastemakers in music – as avid consumers and fans of music, success among student areas is an important ‘litmus test’ of a song’s potential and a brilliant area to build momentum and lifelong fans.
Whether with live radio interviews, online TV session, or gig reviews in magazines – student media offers significant exposure, with newspapers and magazines distributed to millions across campuses, radio stations played throughout university and student union buildings and national student media such as The Tab currently thriving.
Due to the ever-changing personnel of student media, it can seem like a difficult world to penetrate – however this is no bad thing! Today’s student journalists and presenters will go on to be the writers and editors of some of the biggest stations and publications in the world – and we’re here to make sure they hear your music first!
