Hello everyone. I have a friend who plays piano, guitar, and has a *very* versatile and powerful singing voice, but she's not so great at marketting herself. She performs at clubs and loves music, but doesn't seem to think she can make a living off of it.
Over the years, she's sent me nearly all of her studio recordings, and some live ones. And as a side project, I organized these dozens of recordings into albums and mastered them to sound good together as albums. I have about 8 short "ep" albums and 2 normal albums. In doing this, I was actually quite shocked at how well the songs flow together as albums once I figured out what order sounded best.
The question
So, lately I've been thinking about showing her how easy it is to spread your music online. She's never uploaded her music anywhere before, and seems shy about it, which is ironic considering how many people she's performed in front of. I think if I created a page for her somewhere, she may see the value in creating a website.
My question is this, is there any music site that would fit this situation? Something I could upload a couple albums to for free?
I would put a password on it so only she could see it. I wouldn't want to violate her freewill by posting her content on the web publicly without her permission. Or is posting it anywhere at all a bad idea?
I feel that she's really talented and I want to open her eyes to the possibilities of a web presence.
Any insight on this is appreciated.
