Basement To Stardom Story A Dupe

Remember Sandi Thom, the girl who played to crowds of 200,000 people via the web before getting a record deal? Well the gossip in the blogoshpere is that it was a rather well made up PR stunt and that her audience never came anywhere near the 200,000 reported and that she may have already had a record label contract.

Of course, the record and PR industries have always tried to find new ways to promote their records – but this time, the lack of transparency has left a lot of people duped. Check the post over at Chatreuse and the comments after and there seems to be a grass roots effort by upset ‘fans’ to let every blogger who wrote about Sandi Thom to know the truth (see comments here).
