As you redesign artist sites (since you have to whenever a new album comes out), you might want to consider supporting multiple languages. The Roots have quite a following outside of the US; if you had french/japanese/german etc. support, it might improve your visibility internationally. Just have little flags for them so that they can choose which laguage they wanna read in.

Imagine something like this:

From my understand of how to build out websites, it doesn't seem to be TOO difficult; but i've never worked with flash, so that might be the deal breaker.

And now I'm led to believe that life is all about CREAM
I'm living a life idealistically, principle over profit
But realistically good intentions are microscopic to fat pockets
