Music Sumo Hoodie
Since so many people have been asking for it, we have started to create our own Music Sumo brand goods. We now have Music Sumo t-shirts, sweatshirts, mousepads and more! We even are starting to incorporate some goods for the ladies. Check out our new soft goods store today and pick yourself up a warm Music Sumo hoodie!

If you are in a band, or know somebody who is, Music Sumo is looking for new artists to add to the website! The music can be sold online via CD and digital download, and can also be promoted on the Music Sumo homepage and on the Music Sumo Podcast! We have also decided to extend our promotional offer to all artists who submit their music throughout 2008. If you enter in the coupon code, "sumopromo" in the coupon redemption area at the time of checkout you will receive 20% off the submission fee, making it only $20! Submit your music today!

Would you like to help out Music Sumo and you are not sure how? Place a link to us on your website! You can find all of our links, banners, etc., here!

Music Sumo is also looking for donations to make the website the best it can be! We are currently accepting any donations to assist us in reaching new artists through web banners, magazine placements, TV ads, and more! Any amount helps! Please donate today!! Thank you!

We have more changes and additions planned for the website in the near future, including new artists, more new apparel, and more. So, keep in touch often!
