Record Label Research

I started off by finding artists who had similar qualities to mine. The most important of these qualities:
-FEMALE FRONTED
-NOT COMPLETELY MAINSTREAM.

TONIGHT ALIVE

Fronted by Jenna McDougal, Tonight Alive are an Australian alternative band. They're signed to the label 'Fearless Records', owned by Sony Music Entertainment.

WE ARE THE IN CROWD

Fronted by Taylor Jardine, We Are The In Crowd are an American pop punk band. Theyre signed to Hopeless Records

PARAMORE 

Fronted by Hayley Williams, Paramore are a pop rock band from America. Theyre signed to Fueled By Ramen LLC  an American record label which operates as a subsidiary of Warner Music Group, and is distributed by Atlantic Records.

FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE

Florence and the Machine is an English indie rock act fronted by Florence Welch, currently signed to Universal Republic, owned by Universal Music.

TEGAN AND SARA 

Tegan and Sara are a Canadian indie pop duo formed in 1995 in Calgary, Alberta, composed of identical twin sisters Tegan Rain Quin and Sara Keirsten Quin. They're signed to Warner Bros.

BEST COAST

Best Coast is an American Indie rock duo fronted by Bethany Cosentino.  They are currently on Harvest Records, a major record label belonging to Capitol Music Group, originally created by EMI.

COURTNEY BARNETT

Courtney Barnett is an Australian indie-rock singer-songwriter and guitarist from Melbourne. She's signed to 'Milk!', an indipendent label based in Australia.



HANNAH DIAMOND

Hannah Diamond is an english bubblegum pop artist signed to PC Music, an indie label.



Lots of the labels the above artists are signed to are subsidiaries of other, larger labels.
A warner label: Tegan and Sara, Paramore
Sony: Tonight Alive
Universal: Florence and the machine
INDIE LABEL: Hannah Diamond, Courntey Barnett, Best Coast, We are the In Crowd.

It seems like any record label that would take my artist would probably be an indie label, not connected to a larger company.
