TORONTO (Billboard) - Several Canadian indie labels have formed a new label services company, Rock Steady, which aims to help independent artists crack the American market.
The brainchild of Toronto-based Last Gang Records founder Chris Taylor, Rock Steady is headquartered in Los Angeles and offers marketing, PR, sales and radio promotion services under one roof, although labels need their own U.S. distribution.
The other partners in the company are Hamilton, Ontario-based Sonic Unyon Records and Toronto-based labels Dine Alone Records, Paper Bag Records and Underground Operations.
