The music here is free to those listeners who sponsor the work. If you sponsor the studio for twenty or so dollars a year, you will get access to all the music. Right now that's hundreds of songs, with more on the way. Here are some of the people you'll hear: The Gadjo Playboys- le jazz hot Robert Bobby- folkie fun Willie Marble- grits 'n blues Joe Ellis- eclectic guitar Old Time Liberation Front- folk with strings And there is much more. But what's more important than getting those songs is that by sponsoring the studio you are taking part in a real music-making revolution... you'll help to break the idea that music has to be sold in units, like potatoes or beer. The fish takes you upstream to a studio account at PayPal where you can sponsor our work. Steam Powered Studio is entirely supported through sponsorships- none of the performers get charged for recording here. Your sponsorship pays for our work- past, present, and future. This really is a revolutionary way to support the arts- so please think outside the box of unit sales, and sponsor our work directly instead.
