Welcome to the new format Strada Newsletter and news of major staff developments at Strada Music

New Strada Mailing List

To keep our contacts informed of news about our Artists and tours, we are using MailChimp, a professional mass emailing service. We recently decided to move to MailChimp as we feel we had outgrown all the facilities of our previous service.

We have rebuilt our mailing list to work with MailChimp and have taken great care to ensure that the list only contains the addresses of people we have previously had professional business contact with and those people who signed up previously to our old service. 
By using a professional service such as MailChimp you can be sure that our messages are not SPAM messages, or infected with any kind of computer virus or Trojan.

Introducing our new Strada Staff

The band were signed to the Miracle Prestige agency.
