Duff McKagan Founding Member of Guns N’
Roses and Velvet Revolver Goes nuTsie
SEATTLE (Billboard Publicity Wire via Business Wire EON) June 17, 2008 --
nuTsie.com today announced that Duff
McKagan, founding member of legendary rock bands Guns N’
Roses and Velvet Revolver,
has joined the company’s advisory board.
McKagan has taken an active role in managing the affairs of his bands
and will bring 25+ years of music business experience to the dynamic,
Seattle-based digital music company.
“First and foremost, I’m
a music fan and a musician,” said McKagan. “And
nuTsie is all about the music. Getting your own music anywhere, anytime.
Finding new songs that you like, which is a rush for me even after all
these years of listening to and playing music.”
“I’ve seen a lot
go down over the years with G N’ R and now
Velvet Revolver,” added McKagan. “Working
with nuTsie is a great opportunity to put my experience to work for one
of the most viable new digital music models. This is also a chance for
me personally to get more active in the business world, which is one of
my long-term personal goals.”
McKagan’s addition bolsters nuTsie’s
already considerable credibility as a digital music company with real
connections to music. The company previously announced the addition of
Dave Dederer, of the Grammy-nominated and platinum-selling band The
Presidents of the United States of America, to its advisory board and
then to its executive staff.
