Landing a record contract is the ultimate goal for many aspiring bands — however, it’s not always the easiest thing to accomplish. In this exclusive Q&A, Rock it Out! Blog host Sami Jarroush chats with Danny Gonzalez, head of Burger Records offshoot label Wiener Records. Gonzalez discusses the label’s unique business model — anyone can be signed by Wiener for $250 which will cover the pressing of their cassette tapes, distribution, and artwork. He also talks about how many bands are signed to the label, which Wiener signees he’s most excited about, and the one project he would love to sign to the label.
