Another project that Hanson has spearheaded in their attempt to increase the presence of independent artists in the public's ears is a website called "Are You Listening?" (found at arey- oulistening.com). The inten­ tion of the website is to stimulate the ideas of cre­ ative thinking and inde­ pendent creation that "Strong Enough to Break" supports and informs about. It is a forum for indie groups to get publicity and for people to hear their music, even though it has not been released through a major label. "[Are You Lis­ tening] is not just an artist community site/but a fan and artist community site," said Isaac Hanson. He went on to say that it puts control back in the hands of the artists and the fans rather than the record label, and it allows artists to "organical­ ly" build a fan base.
