ARTIST DEVELOPMENT ---------
"Growing strong wings"
In the past, the record labels, any record label, would take a new, upcoming artist under their wing and work with them to help them become a more developed artist. In the current business model of our industry, that’s no longer the case. Today labels, majors and indies, want someone who is ready to hit the ground running, someone that already has the skills and wherewithal to instantly shine in this highly competitive market. Working with a label today is much like playing professional sports. Most of the mastery of the game, the physical conditioning and the psychological grooming have come before the draft. The athletes have already worked with professional coaches and trainers on the college level that have provided objective direction, based on years of experience, that has transformed raw ability and heart into high-performance-caliber talent.
The stories of artists springboarding from the “little leagues” directly into the “pros” are almost non-existent today. Have you developed and retained a fan base? Are you out playing shows? Have you maximized your digital presence? If you don't have the necessary skills already, the labels are not going to spend their time helping you get them. We can help you maximize the elements that you already have and develop the missing pieces that will put you on the right path. A path that creates a strong career without a label’s support, a path that gets you ready for and puts you in a stronger position when the label calls.
