Indie Band Marketing with Clell Tickle?

January 28, 2007 by Jo Minor 


Was browsing YouTube again today, and stumbled upon this funny video. It’s about Clell Tickle, a fictional character acted out by Aziz Ansari (www.azizisbored.com), labeled as the “Indie Marketing Guru”.

His fool-proof method of getting your band famous if you sign-up with him:

Step 1: Get bloggers onboard

Step 2: Get the music to the people

Step 3: Get a good review on Pitch Fork Media

This was obviously a marketing ploy by Pitch Fork Media, but hey I think it works! It got over 400,000 page views on YouTube, and probably a lot of phone calls for Pitch Fork Media.
