Silent Movie Records (STREETS OF FIRE OUT NOW!)

About Me


GENERAL INFO:
Silent Movie Records is a fiercely independent record label based out of The Glass City, Toledo, OH. It all began with the cardboard unpacking of their initial release. Then to the flyers and stubs of sold out home town shows for their artists. Then to the stickers and flyers seen plastered on van trailers across America. Then to the pages of some of the scenes most popular magazines and websites. These objects clutter the space of their base operation as constant reminder that getting music out there takes more than advertising campaigns and records sales. It takes a mutual passion and desire between Artist & Label.
“We are grass roots, music out there is all about believing enough in a single band to dedicate yourself to making sure everyone you meet loves them just as much as you do.”
Guerilla advertising and marketing campaigns aren’t cleverly disguised as rouses to fool an unsuspecting public. We believe in these bands enough to do whatever it takes, whatever we can think of next to help them out. We don’t have formulas or a standard marketing plan. We have a love for our artists and treat each as unique as they are. The times are changing, perhaps even changed, we must do the same, we must rethink our strategies every day. This is how you excel.
Silent Movie Records is dedicated to bringing the best upcoming bands to the spotlight they deserve.
