Pulse Rated Radio Gives the ?be the Band? Online Charity Project an Early Xmas Present

Pulse Rated Radio has offered to Support ‘Be The Band’ and it’s not just for Christmas.

The ‘Be The Band’ project which hopes to raise £1million for charity through the creation of an online virtual student band and release of a singl
e next year, is already celebrating Christmas early with news that Pulse Rated Radio the worlds leading internet & satellite radio broadcaster is going to support the project.

The project, which went live on the 19th of November, has already attracted 270 students from across the UK and beyond. With members of the website fulfilling a variety of roles from band members, music production, animators and graphic artists there is something for everyone.

Everything from the style of the music to the band members themselves will be selected through an online voting process that will involve all the registered users of the website. If you are struggling with the concept try and think of what ITV’s X factor would have been like if the Gorillaz had entered and the whole thing took place online.

Pulse Rated will be providing coverage for the project and regular updates through its internet and satellite radio station program. This will provide
‘Be The Band’ with exposure to over 8 million homes and will be a real shot in the arm for the project.

One of the driving forces behind the project Mike Harding from thestudentzone.com had this to say

“I’m really excited about Pulse Rated’s involvement with supporting the project as their style of broadcasting really fits in with the concept of ‘Be The Band’. The whole project is really based in cyber space and to have a digital/web broadcaster of this calibre supporting us is a real boost.”

The project founder Emma Reilly from studentcribs.com is encouraged by the involvement of Pulse Rated

“Having Pulse Rated on board is just fantastic for us. It really validates the project as a whole and will hopefully allow as many people as possible to hear about Be The Band. The more people we get involved the more unique this project will be.”

Pulse Global CEO, Richard LaBrum, said:

"Pulse Rated champions new, unsigned, and emerging music, which is why we’re pleased to support Be The Band.



It’s a unique and exciting project, and it’s raising money for Nordoff-Robbins – a charity who are doing some amazing work with music therapy.



Be The Band deserves to be huge, and we want to help it on its way by spreading the word on-air, as well as online at pulserated.com."

With the involvement and support of all those associated with the project including the website members it is hoped that ‘Be The Band’ can reach its goal of raising £1million for Nordoff-Robbins music therapy charity from the sale of the resulting single and also raise awareness for such a worthy cause.

If you’re a student and would like to help or be part of such an amazing project, please visit the website and register at www.betheband.co.uk as they are still looking for animators, artists, graphic designers, music producers, band members and song writers.
