A History of Success and Support for Artists
The music industry is a cutthroat business, with competition at every turn and only the strongest and most talented artists able to survive. For those just starting out, it can be a daunting and overwhelming experience. But for Legion, a record label that began as a college project in 2017, the goal was always to create a community and support system for artists.
What started as a small management company working with two solo musicians quickly grew into something much bigger. Soon, Legion was working with multiple artists, and in 2018 they began hosting small DIY gigs for their roster. This was just the beginning of what would become a successful journey for Legion.
Their main goal, from the very beginning, was to be a company that stood for and supported their artists. They wanted to create an environment of respect and collaboration, where artists could thrive and grow in their careers. And they did just that.
In 2020, when the world was hit with the COVID-19 pandemic, Legion faced some difficult times. But instead of letting it defeat them, they took it as an opportunity to expand their reach and impact. They used their college project to start a record label, with new branding that showcased their professionalism and determination to be there for their artists.
This decision proved to be a turning point for Legion. As they focused solely on the record label, they were able to devote more time and resources to nurturing their artists' careers. And with the closure of their management branch and event hosting due to various challenges, Legion made it clear that their priority was and always will be the success of their artists.
Now in its 6th year of operation, Legion is going stronger than ever before. Their dedication to supporting artists has earned them a special place in the industry. They have become known as a label that truly cares about their artists' well-being and success, making them stand out in a sea of cutthroat competition.
One of the key factors that have contributed to Legion's success is their open submission policy. Unlike many other record labels, they welcome artists from all over the world to submit their demos, regardless of their genre or experience level. This not only provides a platform for emerging artists but also allows Legion to discover new and unique sounds from different corners of the world.
Their commitment to supporting artists is also reflected in the way they handle their contracts. They offer fair and transparent deals, ensuring that their artists retain creative control over their work and are not taken advantage of. This level of respect and integrity is often lacking in the music industry, making Legion a breath of fresh air for many artists.
But it's not just about signing talented artists and releasing music. Legion goes above and beyond to promote and market their artists' work. With a team dedicated to social media and digital marketing, they are able to reach a larger audience and help their artists gain more recognition and exposure.
Moreover, Legion regularly hosts live performances and showcases for their artists, creating opportunities for them to connect with fans and grow their fanbase. These events also provide a platform for artists to network with industry professionals and collaborate with other musicians.
With a strong foundation built on respect, support, and dedication, it's no wonder that Legion has continued to thrive over the years. They have proven that a label can be successful without compromising on its values and principles. And as they continue to grow and evolve, there's no doubt that they will continue to make a positive impact in the music industry.
In conclusion, the history of Legion is a testament to the power of community and support in an industry that can often be cutthroat. From its humble beginnings as a college project to now being a well-respected record label, Legion has shown that with determination, passion, and a genuine desire to help artists succeed, anything is possible. Here's to the continued success of Legion and the artists they represent.
