At Fort Albert Music, we believe in supporting independent musicians, and protecting their best interests. Fort Albert has chosen to adopt a stance against the Performance Rights Organizations and the harm they cause to independent musicians. The big thing that ASCAP and the other PRO's do is they tend to overstep their bounds.

 This first tutorial will show you how to integrate your Facebook to your Twitter and your MySpace so the things you post to it go to all three sites. This can make for easier communication across these websites. There are other solution to get this done, but I like how easy an straightforward this one is.

 Well hello and welcome to the new site, we had some troubles with the old one, and I felt that a change was in order. But I think in the long run this will be a change for the best. I have adopted a more aggressive media release schedule meaning more audio and video to independent music lovers. We are working on improving the way the video library is handled on the new site as before the videos were not really hosted on here and were on various other sources instead.
