About Me

Scorpion Records was started in 1999 after dealing with a growing number of people in the music industry as well as show promoters. It became obvious, bands (unfortunately) need label backing to succeed. Although, sometimes the backing goes as quickly as it came if the bands don't produce enough money for the label. We decided to try and create something unique. A label that acts like a family, with bands that help support each other to achieve their goals. A label that gives the artist freedom to create what they believe in while giving them the backing of a label that so many industry people insist you need. We don't limit ourselves to any one style band nor do we ever plan to. In an industry that is too often "what can you do for me" we try and take the stand, "how can we help each other".
