Looking to Gain as a Member: As a young label, we are looking to make ourselves more visible to the industry at large. We are always looking for new and exciting opportunities to connect with people to create innovative promotional ideas for our artists.

Decision to Join Music Biz: Coming from a DIY, independent artist & manager background, we want to connect with other like minded people in the industry. We also want to make sure we’re staying on top of the latest trends with data analysis and revenue collection (as it seems to always be growing and changing). We don’t want to fall out of being “in the know” because we are small and think that being a part of Music Biz will help us immensely!
