NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Silverado Records continues charting new territory as an independent record label, and the industry is taking notice, as Billboard profiles the company’s strategic digital/streaming approach to artist development.
In addition to his history working in radio, Silverado’s CEO Scott Thomas has focused on viral marketing and digital platforms like streaming services instead of chasing airplay. This catapulted Silverado’s streaming numbers to well over 2 million in just one year. Their strategic marketing created a brand for the label, before announcing any artist signings.
“Silverado generated more than 10 million brand impressions on Twitter in 2017, and in the label’s first year, the company generated the second largest social media following of any independent label in Nashville, second only to Big Machine, a feat for which the label won an American Business Award, and is nominated once again for the honor in 2018.” -Billboard’s Chuck Dauphin.
The Billboard feature also exclusively premiered Silverado Records’ recording artist Tyler Jordan’s video for his new single, “Why Her.” Click here to watch.
