Why should you sign with Misra Records? Because we’re just like you!
Look, we get it - most artists don’t need a traditional label deal these days. Labels don’t have a monopoly on distribution anymore, and there are plenty of top-shelf PR, radio, and playlisting professionals that you could hire yourself and stay independent. In fact, according to the latest research, about 50% of all artists who already have a label deal don’t see it as essential to their career. On top of that, over 70% of artists who aren’t signed say that they don’t think it’s important to ever sign a label deal!
Despite all this, you still might need a little help with funding at key moments throughout your career: to take the promo campaign of your new album to the next level, to provide tour support as you go out on the road, or maybe you’re just about to head into the studio and are hoping to afford a big-name producer to helm the project.
Because we’re artists ourselves, we want to give you these resources without stepping on your toes creatively. And more than that, we have the wisdom that comes with decades of industry experience, meaning that we’ll advise you better than anyone else on where to direct those resources - not to mention provide you with some serious firepower in the form of the best digital and physical distro operation in the world!
So imagine a label big enough to provide you with a $1,000,000 advance yet flexible enough to let you to maintain ownership of your recordings, allow you to retain the publishing rights, and to not interfere creatively with your work. That’s who we are at Misra Records.
You know that it’s time to grow, that your current team should be augmented. But you don’t want to sell your soul to one of the Big Three. And while it’s nice to know that you could just go to the bank to borrow money, they won’t be able to tell you the best way to invest those resources in order to ensure that your next album is the success that it deserves to be (let alone provide you with the infrastructure). Partnering with Misra Records is truly the best of all worlds.
