How Record Labels Work

How Record Labels Work: #music #indie As it became more and more difficult for bands to get signed by the huge record labels, independent record labels began to pop up. Independent record labels (also known as indies or garage labels) can be as large as some of the smaller corporate record companies or as small as one or two people. According to Music Biz Academy, the reason that so few independent record labels succeed is due to the sheer amount of money, work and time it takes to run a record label.
