I've noticed how most indie acts seem to have a lot of merchandise for sale, I think it's a decent part of thier revenue because they're mostly focused on smaller fanbases like Vanessa, and it helps them reach out with fans. That's where Vanessa's career strength lies, with a humble but dedicated fanbase.
I got to thinking how V has never really had any merch for sale. Other bands have released cool things like album box sets or limited art prints that I really cherish. It's sad that all Vanessa has really released is her 4 albums. I know there is the ROTR poster but it was only available on tour. Now that this online store is on her website, what would you like to see? T-shirts? hoodies? prints? keyrings? calenders? a DVD? what V stuff would you guys want?
My dream Vanessa item is an EP of some unreleased songs, just recorded acoustically like the ROTR bonus tracks, that comes with a booklet featuring hand written notes/drawings and unseen photos from V and maybe a few art postcards.
If you guys are up for the idea of some official V merch, I'd love to see us all tweeting Razor & Tie about it. Other artists on that label have merch stores. You never know, we might just end up getting a few exclusive items!
