What We Do


“I love to collaborate with my clients in nurturing a creative atmosphere of respect, honesty, loyalty and community.”

These are the services that Hard Pressed Publicity offers. Please contact Jo Rae with any questions about them. We can also combine different PR services in one package, making the project more streamlined to fit your publicity needs.

We create a targeted media list that fits your style of music, and we also do not “pound” the media regarding following up with them.  A calmer, ongoing approach works better.
