Gi Dussault and Joe Kelley started CREATIVITY IN MUSIC seven years ago
because of their love for music and the desire to help musical artists
succeed in getting their music heard and their talent recognized. They
saw many great CDs (even some from close friends) get pushed to the
wayside after release due to a lack of direction in promotion and the
tough ways of the music and radio businesses. You may know the tale:
An independent artist releases a CD which he/she has put their talent,
hard work, and money into. There is an initial buzz with the CD's
release. But after a few weeks, the CD disappears much to the dismay
of the artist. Creativity In Music is a personalized promotion company
that specializes in radio promotion, internet publicity, press release
and bio writing, and music career advice. Presently, they work with a
diverse group of artists in both musical genres and career
achievements. Some musicians have won Grammy Awards and others are
just releasing their first CD. They have a love for all types of music
and work with musicians in R&B, rock, country, hip-hop, dance, jazz,
latin, blues, rock, gospel, reggae and funk.
Joe Kelley has had a multi-faceted career in radio, internet and
publishing. His radio show, the "Upper Room with Joe Kelley", has been
on the air since 1982 on WVOF in Fairfield, CT (www.wvof.org) and we
also operate a separate 24 hour internet station
(www.upperroomwithjoekelley.com) . Since he has worked in both
commercial and non-commercial radio, he has seen the full-range of
radio and knows what works for radio promotion and having your music
heard on-air. His show is recognized world-wide and in 2004, the
"Upper Room" became the first radio show ever featured on Rock and
Roll Hall of Famer's Prince's official web site . Gi and Joe have
developed countless contacts in radio, clubs, newspapers, magazines
and internet through these years and feel your CD will be placed in
the right people's hands for promotion and airplay. Joe has also
worked as a publishing editor and utilizes these skills in their press
releases and bio information. Gi Dussault hails from a background of
music promotion and dance. She was a world-renowned international
dance champion and owned her own dance school in Montreal, Quebec.
Because of this excellent background, she has several great contacts
in Europe, Asia, Canada, and Australia. She speaks fluent French and
English . Gi also co-hosts and co-produces the "Upper Room" radio show.
