They don't have to be successful (at least yet), but do you know any artists personally? Also post links so people could listen to their songs (like a myspace page). I know 2:
I actually used to talk to the guitarist or bassist from New Found Glory (Matt Grushka) via AIM. I still remember his screen name but I stopped giving a **** about him and his band after last year's "It's Not Your Fault."
