Manic Bloom : Birth of a Street Team 2




So wow! Had a terrific week as I saw this long-promised film
see the end of its production. Myfriend Danielle
had dreamed of serving as part of the Street Team
for the amazing Tennessee band Manic Bloom.

However, she was no mere mortal as she also felt a video
would go far in promoting the band in addition to putting
up posters and flyers in our neck of the woods.

We're in the Monterey Bay area which would serve well
in helping the band gain a foothold in California.
With as many major cities we have here
a future tour could be made worthwhile for them.

So the film was done and it was uploaded to 
YouTube for a test run to see if any edits were going to be needed.
Within moments we received word from the band who
immediately took a liking to the video!!

We were over the moon in the way it was received
and totally inspired by the love and goodwill generated.
It was quickly welcomed to the band's
website blog and Facebook page.


I'd like to thank all of our friends who helped in
making and appearing in the film as well as
aiding us in the poster campaign.
Super thanks to Danielle for the inspired idea,
camera work and enthusiasm.

Major thanks to the band for being so supportive
and being so great in the first place!


Hoping you enjoy the film as much as we did in making it!
The song is 'Toynbee' from the band's CD
'In Loving Memory'

Available on the band's website, Amazon and Soundcloud:
as well as iTunes :

Wow! Again, I'm so grateful for all of your help in getting our band out to the world! You guys are what keep us going. And we are working on a street team website, so once that's launched you will all be the first to know.

And the blog looks awesome. I'm really impressed with the photo editing. Did you do all that? You should do flyers for bands.
