A note on press releases:
I read my first rock band press release when I was 14 years old. I scored a crazy opportunity in the form of a summer internship to the Palm Beach Post because I was the only kid in my 8th English grade class who enjoyed writing enough to do the assignments. The teacher had connections and threw me a bone.
So there I was, Revolution Live in Fort Lauderdale, FL, armed with braces, a tape recorder, note pad and a Media Pass strung around my neck, ready to interview Cobra Starship and We The Kings backstage before their show. Someone passed me two sheets of paper- their press releases. We The Kings’ was normal. It had a picture of the band, where they were from, pretty straight forward information.
Cobra Starship’s was out there. I wasn’t sure what I was looking at. It had a picture of a UFO, said the band had arrived from outer space, and made absolutely no sense. It was basically a creative, poetic fiction on one piece of paper that gave me no info about the band. I was one confused kid reading that press release, but I never forgot it.
Anyway, that’s my little press release story.
Feel free to reach out, follow along, and check back for new writing and updates!
