Out Loud Apparel is a student-run clothing line founded by Eric Beaudin and Katie Kellett. The idea for Out Loud Apparel formed over several years of attending Warped Tour, Bamboozle and shows throughout the state of Michigan. The two noticed that after seeing hundreds of vendors and thousands of t-shirts, they simply couldn't find any that matched their shoes. In order to solve this problem, they decided to create their own designs under the name Out Loud Apparel. The duo would also be doing the music community a service by providing bands with clean clothes, since running out of clean shirts while out on the road seems to be a problem for touring musicians. Once the Out Loud train was ready to leave the station, Eric and Katie realized that they were not as technologically advanced as they thought. With this epiphany being reached, the two recruited Calvin Murphy to be their graphic designer and webmaster extraordinaire. All the pieces to the puzzle were put in place and the members of Out Loud Apparel began their endeavor of delivering high quality clothing that offers their unique perspective to indie-rock inspired clothing.

You guys rock, when will you be in my neck of the woods?
-Well thank you for the kind words but we're afraid we cannot take any credit for the dance party you've just experienced! All of this amazing music you hear on our page is actually by the bands we sponsor. If you like what you hear, please visit their page (in our top friends) and leave them plenty of love!
Do you sponsor athletes too?
-At this time our focus is strictly on bands. Sorry Charlie...
Will you sponsor me/my band?
-That all depends... From time to time Out Loud Apparel has openings for new sponsorships. We pay attention to everyone and in most cases we'll find you, but if you think we may have overlooked you or haven't made it around to you yet there's good news: We're accepting press kits!
Press kits should include the following:
-Name of band
-Address of bands MySpace/PureVolume/etc...
-Contact information: Address, Phone and Email

-Names and roles of every member
-Promo shot(s) 5x7 or larger
-CD with at least 3 songs
-Anything else you'd like to tell us. Be creative, sell yourself to us. Why should we sponsor you and what can you do for us?

Do you give out free stuff?
-Come talk to us at one of the shows we'll be attending. Every now and then we have random things we're giving away... plus we always have plenty of hugs and smiles!
Are you one of those bands that respond to messages?
-Well, besides the part about being a band, yes. We always try to respond to everything! Sometimes we get a little over-flooded with messages so if it takes a while to get back to you we're sorry.
Are you a robot?
-Nope! We're all human here... we will never use bots, so anytime you see us talking, it's for real :)
