Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) February 3, 2004 --With the release of the 2004 edition of the Galaris Musicians Directory (GMD), staying in touch with the music industry has never been easier for savvy musicians. The GMD, a treasure trove of nationwide contacts within various aspects of the music business, is offered in a unique interactive digital format. The GMD differs from printed directories, in that it contains active links directly to websites and email and is kept constantly up-to-date. The contacts are broken down into 17 categories, browseable by state and listed alphabetically, making it easy to quickly find exactly whats being searched for. The GMD can be read page-by-page just like any book, or searched through like a website, jumping from topic to topic with the click of a mouse. Each page can also be printed separately. Included in the GMD, is access to a resource of hundreds of articles and current music news, syndicated 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year.

While these features alone would make the GMD an extremely useful item for any musicians wanting to be in touch with their industry, there are various updates to the 2004 version that make it even more indispensable. Over 7000 new music industry contacts have been added, a mini search engine has been included to make it even easier to locate particular information, and the GMD is now right-click compatible, meaning contact information can be copied and pasted into any format available. Business listings also now include a full mailing address along with a description, email address, website link, phone number, fax number, and contact name.

The feedback on the GMD, from musicians, industry executives and our partners, has been overwhelmingly positive. Everyone loves the ease of use and the time it saves. I get at least one email a day from an artist thanking us for publishing this valuable resource and that makes all the years of hard work worth it," said Galaris founder and president, Ariel Soudak.

Galaris, the company and website entity behind the GMD, estimates that over 30,000 musicians will use the popular contact directory in 2004.
