I live in Brooklyn, NY and have been involved in the music industry for 10 years in various nationally touring bands. Currently, the mind behind Kill The Alarm (www.myspace.com/killthealarm). I have recently gone back to school to earn my bachelors degree and would be greatly interested in working as an inern, whether I am able to accrue college credits or not. Would love and relish the opportunity.

I am attending UC Riverside’s MBA program at the Palm Desert Campus. I am extremely interested in an internship opportunity.
As a young man I wrote copy and orchestrated publicity for a major concert promoter in Oregon.
I spent many years working in the film business as a propety master and publicist.
My great passion, however, is for music.
I have a great commercial sense and a keen ear. I am also savy at in the area of publicity.
It would be a great thrill to intern at your label for the summer with the possibility of earing an entry level position.
Sincerely,
Adam S. Peters

I attend the College Of Southern Nevada/Las Vegas and am 3 credits shy of obtaining a certificate in Music Business and Technology. With this program I have learned how to perform many jobs in the music industry, such as recording engineer, A&R, manager, producer and so on. I am an aspiring publisher/songwriter and would love the opportunity to further my career with your label.
Respectfully Yours,
Damon
