Edward is a great resource. He knows a lot about how to successfully market music, in a way that very few people do.
It had been such a pleasure to work with Downers Club for the past 4 months. This team has provided the skills, support, and collaborative approach to bring my music and e-commerce web site to like.
I highly recommend Downers Club as a support for all inspiring artists.
