Question From a Reader

Question from a reader: Do you have any advice for a band from the East Coast of Canada starting it's own label and releasing, distributing, marketing itself.?

Great question - if you look at any of the bands that get signed to one of the big metal record labels AT LEAST 80% have had a release on a smaller Indie or their own label before they come to the attention of the bigger labels.

In this digital age the cost of recording an album, designing artwork, getting the physical cd manufactured and getting digital distribution has never been more affordable.

But without the right plan behind your self financed album things are going to get messy

I recommend that you check this link: Record Label Business Plan

and see if you are ready to run your own label
