Description
Halshack is an everything music entertainment juggernaut including podcasts hosted by me with music and music only bonus show podcasts, review blogs, video channel like MTV and our own radio station on ZENO FM!!! Festival promotion company coming as well. We are broadcasted, played, streamed, downloaded, or aired in over 500 global markets and over 100 countries around the world!! I work with indie bands who have earned top star music collab projects with (Stevie Nicks, Frankie Muniz, Lil Zane, Belinda Carlisle, Eminem, including many more credits) We also help represent #1 Billboard rock band CAVO!!
I am honored to have been bestowed with such gifted musicians and music and to be revered with such respect among my peers. Thanks so much for your love and support as we continue to rise to the top of the music industry. I am currently fielding investors and/or partners to make HALSHACK RECORDS a reality.
I have partners who are former major label reps as we all come from a major label background in some capacity. I earned a partnership with REVERBNATION about 3 years ago through the former owner of the company Lou Plaia. He and his partners after 15 years of investment into the indie music community sold the company to Bandlab! A Singaporean company. I have continued that relationship as most reps still work for the company. They have fed me hundreds of new bands through their "Opportunities network" as well as my contacts with Belinda Carlisle and Eminem and Lil Zane and Nic Collins (son of Phil Collins) in his own band as a drummer as he is also the current touring drummer for Genesis! Im very very honored to have these credits!
We recently put heavy focus on the radio station for ZENO FM! So far it has received massively strong positive reviews and people have logged thousands of hours of listening for the station in a short time! AWESOME!!
Find the show on every major music platform in the world and on ZENO FM (exclusive content) and on HALSHACK.com
