ORANGE COUNTY, Calif., March 21, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- FOAM (Future of Alternative Music) (tm) Productions today announced its new compilation CD, featuring 14 tracks from Orange County's hottest new artists. The CD is available directly online at www.foamcd.com at a price of only $9.99. Track samples are easily accessible from the site.
"Similarly to what Fox and 19 Entertainment have been able to do with American Idol, we have screened through countless rock artists, some good, some very, very bad," said Steve Sturgeon, FOAM Productions founder. "Ultimately we've been able to filter through all the noise out there and come up with 14 top notch tracks from Orange County's finest."
To help promote the CD this week, FOAM Productions is running TV commercial spots for Cox Cable customers on MTV in the Irvine/Newport Beach areas and print ads are also in the current issue of OC Weekly.
Artists featured on the compilation disc include:
-- Stairwell -- Halfwayhome -- Buzzbox -- Beyond 7 -- Kim Cahill -- National Product -- Two Million Minutes -- Tim Russell Band -- Neptune Thomas -- Mind Driver -- Descention -- Ever So Good -- Maya Marin -- eightyonedays
"Orange County's music scene is beyond rich with talent and we hope to help gain a broader audience for this group of deserving artists," said Sturgeon. "The tracks on this CD blow away a lot of what's airing now on commercial and college rock radio."
About FOAM (Future Of Alternative Music)
FOAM Productions was founded on the premise that there is a better way to market music. Believing there is strength in numbers, FOAM filters the best tracks from undiscovered alternative rock bands and packages them on compilation CDs at a reasonable price so that artists can together expand their fan bases, bringing music out of the clubs, off of web sites and into the world. All FOAM CDs can be purchased directly at www.foamcd.com.
Editor's Note:
All tracks can be easily sampled at www.foamcd.com. Promotional copies available to press on request. For additional information,
