Loud Legacy Records started off to be a reaction of what we currently see in culture and music, the segration between musicians, audience and community.
Being in a band can sometimes be a real struggle with hours and hours being put into rehearsing, getting no traction whatsoever of emails and contacts being shared to venues etc.
This is something we want to change!

Loud Legacy Records wants to do this together with the bands!
We are in this together and with the help of eachother, and the other bands of the family, we can create something great!

Let’s start by sharing local venue contacts with eachother, exchanging gigs, buying merch, promotion eachothers post, creating playlists, commenting on posts, give a shout out to success and all of that!
Simple but effective stuff can create a wave to something even better!

1. Leverage Social Media Platforms
2. Collaborate With Other Bands
3. Play Live Shows
4. Create And Share Your Playlists
5. Engage With Your Fans Directly

1:
Make use of platforms like Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and Facebook (many more of course as well) to share your music, clips of music videos, behind-the-scenes content and why not do a live Q&A session!
Try to post regulary to get the algorithm to play in your favour

TIP: Use hashtags (aiming to your genre etc), collaborate with other artists/bands

2:
Team up with bands in your location, trading shows, putting up DIY gigs at your rehearsal space and which will introduce their fans to you!

TIP: Collaborate on a joint single or do a live session on social media

3:
Never turn down a gig, at least getting started! One could never know who will actually turn out. It’s a great way to network, share your stories and get to know new people

TIP: Have a QR code available to sign up for newsletters and merch to capture fans

4:
While the dream of getting on a curated playlist is not to far away, creating your own, tagging friends bands, bands that you like and share that will keep you in charge of what audience your music will reach

TIP: Adding ad’s to promote your playlist can have even greater success than submitting on curated playlists (DO NOT SUBMIT TO BOT PLAYLISTS)

5:
Engage with people commenting and liking your posts and make sure to comment on others as well. When you give, you will also receive in the end so don’t be an ass, make friends and share your story with your current and potential fans

TIP: Offer exclusive content, early access and discounts

We are always interested to hear the next big thing and if you are in a band, send us an email with a presentation, link to your music (even demos are all good!) and your thoughts of what you want to accomplish in the coming year!
