Q: What is a Street Team?
A: Street Teams are comprised of groups of fans that get together to help expose their favorite band to friends and fellow music listeners in their hometown. Members use promotional materials like Samplers, Stickers, Video, Flyers and Posters to give away to people just like themselves. Additionally, the team spreads the word throughout the online world via bulletin board postings, mp3 sharing, emails, and radio station requests.

Q: What do I have to do as a Street Team member?
A: All we ask is that you use the items to reach out to music fans like yourself, promote the band, and let us know about what you are doing by sending in feedback and reports. Bring them to concerts, work, school, sporting events, skate parks, stores...wherever you can find potential fans.

Q: Where are some good places to giveaway promo materials?
A: Since you know your hometown better than anyone else, give materials away at places where people just like yourself hang out.
