KNOXVILLE, Tenn. --- November 28, 2006 --- Echo Media, Inc (EMI), a leader in online musician services, today announced the launch of gigleader.com, a site that brings musicians and entertainers together. Gigleader.com is the easiest way to book a band for events such as weddings, private parties, or venues that showcase live entertainment. Joining gigleader.com is a free service for musicians with tools that help promote both the talent and those searching for it. With audio samples, song lists, genre types, pictures, and expected pay range, entertainers can find the best fit for their needs in less time.

Gigleader.com was the next step for a company that started with BandMix.com, a musician classified service. David Sales, President of EMI, said "we figured once musicians found each other they would want to perform, so we felt this was the next step in helping our fellow musicians find what they need." Many of the same musicians that joined bandmix.com will be profiled by the new service.

From the other side of the site stand people like Beth Danson, a bride to be in September of next year. With a busy work schedule already, Danson noted that "this site will let me listen to and compare bands from the comfort of my own home after work." Anyone who has a need for live entertainment can buy credits to contact musicians they are interested in.
