GMC Forum _ CHILL OUT _ Looking For Unsigned/indie Label Bands

Posted by: JVM Jan 13 2010, 10:46 PM

Hi guys,

As some of you may know, last year I got an internship at a record label. A project I'm working on has me picking 3 markets to search for unsigned or indie label talent that my label might be interested in. So, my request to GMC, is if anyone out there knows any interesting bands who may be looking for a label, please post it here or send me a PM They should be in those three areas, pretty much any style as long as the talent is there. Mostly looking for younger bands, but anyone who is interested in being signed is game.

It's probably a long shot, but if anyone knows a friend of a friend or something, it would be great to hear about it

Thanks Skenny. There's a lot of those websites out there They're a great resource, but also many of the links are often dead, information outdated and everything. I have found several interesting bands this way though. But nothing works so well as word of mouth I think.

Word of mouth is the best for sure as long as you trust the mouth it's coming from.. Are you restricted to those markets only?
