WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO GET SIGNED

If you're trying to land a record deal, nothing works better than hitting the road, playing hundreds of gigs, and selling thousands of CDs from the trunk of your car.  For songwriters without access to the internet this is often the best way to go.

But, can you just walk away from your life, your job, your family, and your mortgage payment? Okay, that might be tempting, but why take the risk?  You need a vehicle to help you get your music to the right people.  The SOLAR NAVIGATOR musical showcase can help you achieve just that.  You make the music and we'll publicize it, says Nelson Kruschandl our public relations strategist.

You need to get seen and heard

We're one of the world's leading independent Artist & Repertoire showcases.  We've been operating since 2000.  For more than five years SOLAR NAVIGATOR has specialized in giving artists, bands, and songwriters real access to the people in the music business who have the power to sign deals.

The Music Industry Comes To Us To Find You.

Record companies, publishers, and music supervisors visit our site to find new artists and bands to sign. They also visit to find hit songs, instrumentals and tracks for TV and film placements.

They get in touch with us and we get in touch with you to tell you what they're shopping for. We ensures the material remains anonymous (for the time being) to protect you from being bombarded with truckloads of unsolicited material, unless it is an advantage to show pictures, etc, and agreed otherwise.

A Match-Maker For Your Music

When we receive contact from an interested record company that looks like it's a good match for your music, we get in touch with you.  Your music is automatically copyrighted with us and date stamped from the day a page is made.

What Happens Next?

A specialist from our team of highly trained veterans will listen carefully to each and every song you send us.  If it is suitable for inclusion on our listings, we will let you know.  Your songs and band will be featured as appropriate.  Record companies can listed to your songs and see you - it's simple.

When Your Music Makes The Grade

If they love what they hear, they'll call you to play "Let's Make a Deal." That's what makes our site so powerful, there is always someone out there on the prowl for your type of music.

Let Success Find You

It makes a lot of sense, doesn't it?  We simply put the shoe on the other foot. Why pound pavement, knocking on door after door trying to find somebody who needs your music? SOLAR NAVIGATOR turns the tables, and brings them to you.

Tips From The Top Guns

But your music needs to be up to the task. And if it's not ready yet, we can help you get it ready. This is the really cool part. Not only do you get to take advantage of our relationship  with some of the big fish in the music business, you'll also get helpful, written feedback on your music from our A&R staff.

It's like having your own personal team of industry pros to lend an objective ear. If you've been searching for something that will give you that extra "edge," you've just found it.

Your SOLAR NAVIGATOR membership will last for a Full Year, so you'll get dozens of opportunities that you didn't have before.  Of course, it's up to you just how much effort you put in, and we can confirm that the more you give us, the better your chance of success.

MANAGEMENT

If we like your music enough, we may be prepared to work with you to develop it's commercial potential.  WE may even agree to manage you and represent you all the way to signing a deal.  However, we don't offer this service to most of the artists featured here.  You'll have to be something special, or agree to work with us to make you something special.
