Through distribution of PHANTOM POWER crafted press releases and press kits to our vast library of relevant contacts, Burger has procured media presence ranging from local publications like the Asbury Park Press and Ocean Country Observer to national outlets such as Guitar World Acoustic and Music Connection Magazine. Perhaps most notably, Burger was featured in September, 2007 in an interview with Jim Kerr on the Jim Kerr Rock-n-Roll morning show on New York’s classic rock station Q104.3. “PHANTOM POWER has done a terrific job of monitoring and promoting my musical career far in excess of just running publicity. The team is motivated and trustworthy and creatively apply their efforts to produce first class results.” - Bob Burger
