Music industry veteran Edward "Eddie F" Ferrell has joined forces with fellow music mogul Andre Harrell to launch MusicWerks.com, a new online music group.
The site will be available as a vehicle to align artists, song writers, producers, bands and independent labels with resources and interactive services needed to achieve success in the music business.
For MusicWerks founder Ferrell, the venture will be used to expose users to a variety of options that "range from obtaining digital distribution deals with major online retail outlets like iTunes to receiving professional one-on-one feed back from top A&R's and execs."
"MusicWerks.com offers a compelling and affordable solution to bridge the gap between the traditional music business and the new technological era of music," said Ferrell, who also serves as president of the company.
Services offered on MusicWerks include digital distribution, A&R review services, artist bootcamp, marketing/promotion, online branding, video production/promotion, publicity, CD manufacturing and studio recording services.
Harrell and Ferrell, along with partners Dorsey M. James and Lionel Ridenour, bring more than 20 years of experience to MusicWerks that includes working with and advising music industry fixtures such as Mary J. Blige, Usher, Robin Thicke, Sean "Diddy" Combs, Jermaine Dupri, Avril Lavigne, Russell Simmons and Swizz Beatz.
