Every new artist must start somewhere, most begin in the basement, or in the garage, where ever they can fit thier gear and thier crew. The challenge is for the new artist to find a way to bring thier words to the people. A way to get thier name out on the street. A way for them to get thier show on the stage and thier music onto an album.

 HPe wants to be one route these artists can take to get themselves known. We want to work with the artist to find them a venue. Be that a "Hard Place Party" or simply helping them get a gig in a club. Perhaps even helping them find a label. And once we get "Hard Place Radio" started, that will become one of the fastest and easiest means of getting thier sound heard. And we have many ideas on how to accomplish this task, just some of the ideas will take some time to put into effect.

 HPe will never ask the artists to give us money out of thier pockets for our assistance. But don't get this confused with us being non-profit! HPe is a business after all, and as everyone knows a business that makes no money will fail and crumble.

 Oh, and in case you're wondering, HPe does not like major record labels! These greedy S.O.B's make far too much money as it is. We will be trying to make connections with Independant labels and will work with them to find these artists a home.
