Hazel Park, MI – With the popularity of shows such as American Idol and Nashville Star, artists are learning that they need to polished before the “Big Wig” execs will take them seriously. There is a movement in the music industry for independent artists to prove themselves by creating a “buzz” in the streets and developing their own fan base. The problem is that most artists a clueless at how to do self-promotion.
Walt E. Nelson, an entrepreneur and local businessman has a support network for independent artists. He created DWP Music Services for artists who want to manage and progress their music careers. Nelson is a graduate of Highland Park High School and the Wayne State University Music Management program. DWP began 12 years ago as a basement studio and grew into a polished dream for more than just one person. After six years of producing and recording music in the basement, Nelson stepped out on faith and moved into the Hazel Park facility that now houses DWP Music Services.
Through the Internet, DWP has made their products and services available to musicians throughout the country. The DWP Support Network is made up of three powerful ecommerce websites. All of the sites have tons of free resources for musicians and entertainers, but each site has its own unique identity.
