OurStage: Let The Fans Decide

 

About Daniel Palmer

 
Portrait of Daniel Palmer
Your loyal artist relations guy @ OurStage.com
Welcome! I'm here to help you get the most out of your OurStage experience. I joined the OurStage team because as an artist myself, I believe OurStage can be a great resource for career development and help the independent artist increase exposure and gain new fans.

Get in touch with me if you're confused by anything on our site. First, please check the FAQ to see if your question has already been answered.

Also, feel free to tell me what features you want to see on OurStage. If it's happening, we'll make it happen. I want to work with you to achieve your goals and work with you to make your art shine on OurStage.

Who I'd like to meet:
Everyone on OurStage.

About my work:
I used to play a lot around Boston with different bands and in 2000 I recorded my first solo CD titled ALIEN LOVE SONGS. It took me 7 years to make another. HOME SWEET HOME was produced by Don DiLego and recorded at Velvet Elk Studios (in the heart of Velvet Elk City, Poconos PA).

My influences range from classic singer/songwriters: Neil Young, John Lennon, & Bob Dylan to more modern Alt. Country favorites like Ryan Adams and Wilco. I play blues harmonica and listen to a lot of indie music. Lately I've been getting into spoken word and alternative hip-hop.

Friday's we have an OurStage all-employee coffee house which helps to keep my live performance chops sharp. In addition to writing and recording music I also write thriller novels. My short story, DISFIGURED appeared in the James Patterson anthology THRILLER: STORIES TO KEEP YOU UP AT NIGHT. When I get a free moment I'm working on my debut novel currently titled THE DIVIDED. Keep lookout for it.

 
 
 
 

Daniel Palmer's Blog

 

Make fans, not friends

Unlike affordable gas, there’s no shortage of options and strategies for success in today’s music economy. Over the weekend, I had the pleasure of hanging out with a well-respected folk singer. Without name dropping, I can tell you that I found his perspective on the “What can I do to make it?” question more than a little in...

    Your recent blog... MAKE FANS not Friends...I found something useful in each point that was made. Perhaps the idea of playing for 5 that WANT to see you vs. 100 that just happen to be in the room while you are playing was the most important point for me. Those intimate (very) coffee shop shows really bring folks who love me and they are the loyal fans that spread the word. I've intuitively felt that but Thanks for laying it out there in your blog officially...peace,lauren

    HI, I JUST JOINED YESTERDAY. http://www.ourstage.com/myprofile

    I’m hoping a band or artist will hear one of my songs,
    and want to do their version of it !

    robin K. and I (bob shea), sings the vocals. johny K. does the music . and bob s. writes the words and sings it out loud a bunch of times while johny K. , figures out an arrangement and plays all of the instruments

    thank you

    dan-ma-man, thanks for the free epk dude. this site rocks. i can see it developing into a myspace-ala-facebook place for musicians...except with more user interaction. i've beefed the old epk up a little and will keep adding to it.

    the video for my song win-or-defeat in support of our Paralympic Team will be released in a week or so, and ourstage will be one of the first places i will upload it. i'm really excited about it, ive seen the cut, and its stellar.

    thanks for all the opportunities. hope you are keeping me in mind for more.

    Here is our update.We had a great debut performance in NYC last weekend. We were well recieved at one of the hippest clubs in Manhattan... Mehanata Bulgarian Bar. This place is very cool. We will be back there on July 5th.
    Then we played to over 100 people at the Hollis Spring Gala last Sunday. Thanks to all who came out to support.
    Daniel,Check out our EPK... we have some great pictures on there as well as some great shows on our calendar.
    We have a few great concerts coming up with the Nationally acclaimed Robin Nolan Trio from Amsterdam this June.
    Then we are back in NYC, and in August we will be in Philly on World Cafe Live.
    Much more to come, but please check us out and keep us in mind.

    hey dan, hope everythin is good with you..quick question hopefully you'll be to respond back to me..what is the EPK exactly? i tried to figure out and look for info but i didn't/couldn't find anythin
  • Posted by James Alan Gourley on May 2 at 9:21 PM EDT
    what about the ghost signs ins? I'm with you Dan and I think ourstage is brilliant..but the semi finals are being ruined by up-vote-down vote- mulitiple accounts..so many artists are worried about this cos its going to compromise a great site and the hard work thats been put into it)i want to join your team as a Euro rep and have worked in the music industry for 20 years..We need to come up with a strategy (i dont think just a user pic and profile wil solve the prob)to weed out the cheaters...i know its a difficult one..will keep my thinking cap on Happy

    Hi Daniel, I am new to OurStage but I enjoy very much listening to the music here. I am on dialup so it is a challenge. I have material and would love to compete. Even on dialup I can still send it in. I use Vista and the music is always WMA format. How can I change it to WAV? Let me know if you can help. Thanks, John johnpearls@msn.com

    Hi Daniel,

    Just been monitoring the finals voting - it seems some artists are creating fan profiles to vote purely for their own songs and vote down those at the top. I'm sure you probably aware of this problem but am interested to know what Ourstage plans to do about it as I have heard a good few people complaining about this.

    Apologies if this has already been brought to your attention but worth mentioning as it seems to be on the up.

    Best regards

  • Posted by Raising Cane on Apr 26 at 9:34 AM EDT
    Hello Dan. Why don't you consider a channel called " Ready to cut " for songwriters that post polished demos that music industry people can browse. Your top prize could be a song on an ourstage compilation album. you would only need to have the main genre's of music, not the subs. The publicity would great for Ourstage as well as the songwriter and artist who cuts the song......Gene Vail

    Hey Daniel,

    Thanks for the friend request. I see you're into Neil Young. We're doing a Neil tribute show April 12th. We'll be playing 20 Neil tunes, which is over half of the night. One of our lead singers is a dead ringer for Neil. The bar heard people raving about it so they asked us to do the tribute. Anyway, it should be a good time. We're going burn the place down. (figuratively, of course)

    I like your song "Brand New" - it's exactly the kind music I've been getting into lately, with a 60's rock and Beatles vibe to it.

  • Posted by summerrona on Feb 20 at 12:09 PM EST
    Hey Daniel,

    Thank you for listening to my music & adding me to your faves! I took your advice & added some videos. I am just brand new to this & was so honored to go to #1 so fast. How do I get my friends to vote for me to get me back to #1, since I dropped to #3 Sad. Is it just random judging? In 2 days will it be just between the top 10?

    Well, I look forward to experiencing more of Ourstage. Thanks for your help! Summer Rona
