Atlanta, Ga.- Offering aspiring southern artists the opportunity to showcase their talents for major label A&Rs, magazine editors and celebrity bloggers in New York City, Atlanta-based public relations firm DGPR gears up for its Underground Artist Railroad tour. The journey begins in Atlanta when 10 artists board Amtrak trains for a 17-hour trek to the Big Apple.
Themed after Harriet Tubman’s historic Underground Railroad system where she bravely led countless slaves to freedom in the North, the Underground Artist Railroad seeks to liberate minds, educate artists on the music industry and make an undeniable mark in history via an artist showcase in NYC.
“I crafted the Underground Artist Railroad after Harriet Tubman because she made trips into realms of the unknown,” says DGPR president Don “Ghotti” Pitts II.
Much like the cost of freedom in the days of old, there is definitely price to pay in search of dreams but the case is less costly today. Following in the footsteps of courageous freedom fighter also known as “Moses of her people,” Pitts hopes he can make his undeniable mark in not only music and entertainment but African-American history.
“Most of these artists would never go to New York under any other circumstances,” Pitts explains. “Of course, our journey will be nowhere as dangerous what she did but we intend to keep her spirit alive by paying homage to her.”
Major label recording artists and other industry tastemakers will board the train at various cities along the way to share insight into the music industry and answer questions. After arriving in New York, artists will perform in a showcase for major label A&Rs, magazine editors and celebrity bloggers.
Launching the company earlier this year with offices in New York and Atlanta with operatives across the country, Don Ghotti Public Relations firm was created by Pitts as an inexpensive resource for aspiring artists. “I started this company and orchestrate events like this because I want to empower people,” says Pitts. “I got tired of seeing people ripped off so now I am doing something about it.”
