Recording an album needs support. What I mean by that statement is this...After you have the completed album (CD) in hand, you need to get out there and support it. Line up dates, gigs, shows, places where you can sell your merchandise. In today's world, getting signed without playing out or having some kind of a name for yourself is very, very rare. Yes, it still happens but the chances are slim. Also, going down the "high priced producer" road has no gaurantees either. Thats when you pay a producer thousands of dollars to produce your album because he or she has "connections". I speak from experience because I've been there and done that. Where I and so many others fall short is you have to be in it for the long haul. Most bands and artists that are popular today, play for years before getting contacted by an A&R person. The fact of the matter is labels want to see a following. They want to see a good fan base in place before they will even talk to you. A fan base is developed when you have something to offer. Your music, your songs, your energy. Hope to see you soon in the studio.
