I'm the guy behind Buzzbin Magazine. Back in 2008 I put out my first issue of Buzzbin hoping to promote the local music scene in Akron/Canton.

Who says Akron/Canton/Cleveland is a miserable place to live? Not us. We have one of the best art scenes around, some of the hardest working musicians on the planet, and really great people to fill in everywhere else.
We put out a new issue on THE FIRST WEDNESDAY OF EVERY MONTH covering the best art and entertainment found in northeast Ohio. We never miss a beat. Wonder why our mag is choked full of advertisers? Because we know what we're doing. We offer full scale marketing for each and every business that comes to us. We develop marketing campaigns from the ground up, or we'll take over where someone left off. We have the ability to tell everyone about you. And we're open for business.
We're not pushy, we're helpful.
