What We're Looking For - It's really quite simple - we want artists/bands that are good!!!! Songwriting, singing and musicianship count here. We want bands that want to tour full time. We want bands that want to make their living playing music. We want bands with a work ethic, some common sense, and determination. We want bands that can become recording artists. Again, WE ONLY DEAL WITH POP/ROCK BANDS!!!!
What We're NOT Looking For - No rap, metal, electronica music. If you don't have any music for us to hear, we're not going to listen to you! We're not looking for bad attitudes or egos, either. You can be the greatest band of musicians in the world, but you're not going anywhere if you think the world owes you something for nothing, or if you have a lazy work ethic.
What You Get - is the knowledge of how to make a living playing music. It does not take record deals and radio play, (although that does not hurt). Good old fashioned touring and hard work will still go a long way. You get plugged into all of our connections; clubs, festivals, national concert series, record labels, press, publishing, licensing, and radio contacts. You get all the help you need to set up your business; from sub S corporations to LLC's to partnerships and all the relative tax advice. You get plugged into our digital platforms and retail distribution. Of course you get pitched to labels, major and indies. You get your website up to speed and an on line storefront set up so you can develop your merchandise wing.
You get a career started.
Trust us - if your main ambition is to "make it big" ( who's ambition isn't!), a record company is going to demand to see some dedication before they invest in you. It's a business. They aren't going to give you the time of day if they don't think they can make their money back.....
In short - you get to play music as opposed to flipping burgers, or being stuck with a 9 to 5 that you can't stand! You won't look back later in life and say "I sure wish I would have tried music."
