    For that field I'd start with trade newspapers, magazines & ezines.

    Start locally, with your towns' newspapers and magazines.

    What about Craigslist? That may be a good option too.

    Nice site design.

    Thank you for the positive feedback....

    Do the craigslist ads stay on? I have heard that people flag them?

    offline is a good way of promoting it. At gigs, unis, wherever the hell you find musicians let them know and give out fliers. Definately focus on a local market and expand. If you have any friends/contacts etc use them to get started.
