Submitted by James.
My self and Ben formed Quenched Unsigned, Ben is a freelance illustrator and i am a freelance writer we have both been in love with music since our birth. Yet only now we feel we should step in, too long have artists been unheard, unearthed. This will no longer do, we intend to be the go to team, to help these musicians, industry persons who are starting out, but who are receiving no help as they do not know where to start or have bad experiences dealing with the bigger personalities in the business.
We intend to lighten the load and show that it is not about who you know, or the latest converse, indie boy hair cut, but it is about you as a person and your sound marketing yourself as a product that sounds different and beautiful. Too many musicians are watered down versions of watered down versions, yet this is encouraged by the money makers, people who have forgotten why they got into this business in the first place
Quenched simply wants to remind them and show that people are out there really listening as well as waiting to be enlightned by something fresh new and impulsive. We intend to help by the following:
Quenched Unsigned would offer more press packages, reviews, interviews, write more artist bios as well as make more artwork to help with visual identity e.g album/single sleeves, musicians legal advice and advice about the industry. This means we would cover all bases under one canopy, regardless of genre, if they are unsigned, newly signed or signed, but have not appealed to the mass market. We would even put on nights showcasing new fresh talent regardless of genre.
We would be looking to be hopefully getting these artists on a radio show, which we could run giving them more exposure, and giving them another avenue to showcase their sound instead of their talents going unnoticed and unappreciated. We would hope this would be a chance of getting people hearing their music too and making them wonder who was that where can i hear that again.
These are the main reason we want to be funded so we could make all these services available as well as being able to intice venues, with this we would definitely be able to get the artists who have full time jobs and could help them go to gigs. This would help them pursue what is really important to them and makes them who they are.
These are the main elements of our idea
Quenched Unsigned not genre fuelled, but music driven

Quenched are adding something of great value to the Manchester music scene. They cover all bases (reviews, bios, even gigs) and are great guys to boot! I can only imagine the kind of good work they could do with this grant.
