ANDREW HARVEY

 Andrew Harvey, Andy for short....Is a bachelor musician who's ready to claim fame. He grew up in the West Kootenays, BC, Canada, and to this day, prefers to call the area a haven for creativity. Throughout high school, and by attending various local Jams, Andy has studied Jazz, blues, rock, metal, and Reggae and enjoys playing all types of music.

He grew up in the small town atmosphere, moving in and out of various towns throughout the West Kootenays. During his high school years, Andrew focused his attention on music, multimedia and graphic web content creation. Years after graduation, he continues to focus on the same things he developed a strong passion for in his childhood - Multimedia Production and Cultural Promotion.

Almost exactly one year ago, after many encouraging suggestions from other professionals in his field, Andrew decided to centralize his talents under one name - Collateral Jammage Productions. This was the beginning of a new powerhouse project to level the playing field between the overexposed and underexposed musicians and entertainers abroad. With the enthusiastic use of modern technology, software, and the internet, Andrew quickly realized that the distribution side of the entertainment industry was changing dramatically, and that it was being molded into an opportunity for independent arts to flourish without the costly, hand held and overly competitive corporate model of marketing.

"I tend to focus on creating a positive message and vibe, one that uplifts the spirit, and leaves you with something to think about... When the goal of music becomes nothing but competition and ego, it's not music anymore - it's just noise."

- Andrew Harvey

BRAIN JAMMAGE IS INNEVITABLE... 

In recent months, Andrew has been working hard to put all the peices together to get CJP off the ground and into the airways. In combonation with the creation of his official website, Andrew has partnered up with many social networks and music promotion based websites like Reverb Nation, Myspace and GreaterTrail to help all the amazing talents out there learn how to market and promote their work online.

With this in mind, it is becoming more and more versatile on the internet for people to promote themselves just as well, if not better, with online resources as opposed to traditional media (TV, Radio, Newspaper) "And that's what Collateral Jammage is all about"
