I will write a professional music press release
Music Journalist, Press Release Writer and Artist EPKs
About this Gig
Your music deserves more than a generic press release.
I'm Steve Ritchie, editor of MetalTalk and creator of Press-Ready Made Simple.
I've spent years interviewing musicians and assessing press materials. I understand what journalists need: a clear story, accurate information and a reason to take an interest.
Press-Ready is a guided editorial process helping independent musicians uncover the story behind their music and present it professionally.
