In case you weren’t aware, The Barenaked Ladies are redefining everything that the music industry knew about itself (New Artist Model at Work). Notwithstanding their established success, BNL has been very effective at marketing itself using social media tools such as their own website, MySpace, iTunes and, yes, even Podcasting.
New media consulting and audio productions for traditional and Internet-based distribution including narrative, interview, documentary, conference coverage and promotional programs. Our podcasting experts and new media specialists will help you take your brand and message to the world.
PAB2008, the third annual international podcasting extravaganza, took place in Kingston, Ontario (Canada) on June 20-22, 2008. Audio of the conference sessions is available at the Canadian Podcast Buffet.
I served as bass player for various, early, incarnations of the Robert Farrell Band, last performing with Robert in 1997. After a long hiaitus from music to focus on family and a career, I started working on my first CD, real, in 2004 — before I discovered Podcasting.

Mark, if you haven’t see it you should definitely check out this interview with the Ladies manager Terry McBride:

Not to take anything away from the guys in the band themselves, but McBride is IMHO the guru of the new music industry. I’ve heard him speak a few times, and this guy really gets this stuff and knows how to work it.
For the record, I got the *CD* (hey, rememer CDs?) version of the new BNL, and I think it’s excellent!
