About the project he states, ”I cannot think of a better way to capture the hearts and minds of young people than music. I have loved local music for decades and think that this is an amazing opportunity for Michigan musicians to attract national attention. This campaign will attract nationwide attention and it's absolutely free to the bands that are lucky enough to be selected.”

The project will be limited to 40 performers. Each selected artist will have one song on the CD. The CD will be distributed nationally to over 250,000 music fans. Other benefits will include a menu of promotional service such as ad agency quality posters and the promotion of a CD release event.
