Getting a record deal is nearly impossible.




Scott is absolutely right. The only sort of record deal worth signing is one where the record company is offering you a non-returnable advance against royalties. Because the record companies don't like losing money, they only offer these contracts to people who they know are certain to be a big success.

Statistically, you're more likely to get struck by lightning than to get one of these deals. (A surprisingly large number of golfers get struck by lightning every year.)

In my line of work, I get exposed to a wide spectrum of people that are all up and down the 'making it' in the music business that use our products. Some are no-names, some are at the absolute top of the charts in their genres. I can tell you that happiness as well as abject sadness exists at all points in the spectrum.
