The Green Artist Profiles and Green Artist Spotlight Posts are coming soon.  We will feature articles about how music artists are taking action and raising awareness among their fans.  We will post Green Artist Spotlights in our news section and on our Twitter page.   To be considered for a Green Artist profile you must take action in one or more of the following categories:

  • Taking Action or Participating in Green Organizations
  • Serving as a voice or spokesperson for Green Causes
  • Donation of money to Green Causes
  • Raising Awareness via Green Lyrics or Videos
  • Touring or Performing Green (i.e. biodiesel fuel buses or solar stages)

If you are an Artist who is taking action and who would like to be featured in our “Green Artist Spotlight” news/twitter posts, please Contact us to let us know about it.
