The Underground is a distribution company founded in 2010 by entrepreneur, tv host and producer Damion Holmes. Although the company was founded in 2010, doors did not open until early 2011. The companies objective is to give underground artists who are not signed to any major labels a chance to break into the music industry by funding and distributing different acts that sign onto the company. The Underground is also a place where artists who are denied contracts from large conglomerate labels, a comfortable home to release music they have been working on. All genre's of music are accepted.

Having headquarters in both New York City and London, The Underground has been successful in giving artists plenty of opportunity to put their music on a broader spectrum having helped notable artists such as Edward Barát, Mykaylah, Sara Daniels and possibly the most successful artist who has "graduated" from the Underground, in Riot! In The Boulevard. Artists may stay allied with The Underground for as long as they wish, as no strict "album or single" contracts are given out but when artists feel as if they are ready to move on, they may, as everyone from the Underground will wish them the best of luck with their future endeavors. The Underground also has several recording studio's located throughout the United Kingdom, and North America that are set up so artists can schedule recording sessions for upcoming material. Producers are also contacted either by the artist themselves or by the company ourselves to set up sessions between acts and producers. When acts do release material, The Underground will promote your release, and wish you the best of luck in your release!

Following "The Underground Live" which was a live showcase where all the affiliated artists of the Underground performed live in front of a huge crowd which became a large success, the Underground went on a brief hiatus some months after, in late 2011. Now, we are opening our doors again for acts who wants to become allied, and get distributed by the company. Most recently, recording artist Sara Daniels became allied with the Underground having her newest single "Obsession" funded and distributed by the company. Would you like to become affiliated with the Underground?

If you are an underground artist, and you are trying to break into the music industry, or an artist who got denied an opportunity to sign with a large conglomerate label, or even an artist who is trying to make a comeback in the music label and needs support TheUnderground.com is the perfect place for you and your music! TheUnderground will have a weekly post going through the best underground tracks of the week, with interviews from the artists themselves! If you want to get involved, just email your details to the website coordinator (OOC: PM me)

Short Bio:

OOC: So, I think this would be great to open back up. Anyone have a new artist who you just created or are thinking of creating and would want to get them out through the Underground, or would like to start out here instead of signing to a massive label so fast or an artist you haven't used in quite a long time who hasn't really gotten the world wide acclaim to be signed as soon as they make their return, would be good to start here, those are just some scenarios but there are no requirements to signing here just no major label signees who have made quite the name for themselves. Indie, unsigned acts are wanted :). Hopefully a new Underground LIVE! will happen if we have enough people join up to be in the Underground :). Don't be shy, fill out the form and PM me. :)

Revolver!


"Revolver is a four piece alternative metal band from Juneau, Alaska consisting of Jay Henries (vocals) Josh Holtz (guitar) Brent Barris (bass) and Tanner Noonan (drums). Their musical style is a heavy mix of metal, rap and alternative rock. They've released an EP on an indie record label (HomeSkillet Records in Sitka, Alaska) and have recently relocated to Vancouver, BC, Canada in hopes of recording a debut full length album. Now that they are with the Underground, we will give them the foundation and opportunity to finish recording and eventually release their debut album. Just like any other affiliated act with the Underground, we are deeply excited to get their very distinguishable music out to the public!"

Keli O'Day

Hometown: Glasgow
Age: 25
Genre: R&B/Soul/Pop/Motown
Experience: Written a few songs which have been recorded by artists such as Weekend & Ugenia
Sounds Like: Katie Coyle/Michelle Green
Inspirations In Music: Michelle Green, Katie Coyle, Ryan Ross Hernandez
Bio: Keli was born and raised in Glasgow. Her father is of African origin and her mother is White British. Keli is one of 6 siblings. Her family weren't the richest of people and found it hard to even shop for food due to her father being paralyzed in a car accident making him unable to work and her mother was only a part time cleaner. Despite not having a luxurious childhood, she and her family are very close and supportive. Whatever money came into the house was saved up for music lessons for Keli. She acheived top grades in school and was noted for her excellent way with words in English. At the age of 18, she attended college and studied English. Being close friends with a music producer she sold some songs to him as a way of making an income. Her songs have been recorded by Weekend, Ugenia and many others. Keli has a great writing talent and a beautiful voice that she rarely shows off. She prefers to stay behind the scenes and enjoy the quiet life but with work being hard to find nowadays, Keli is taking the spotlight (or attempting to) for the first time in her life in order to help and support her family.

Length: 4:02
Genre: R&B, Quiet Storm
Written By: Keli O'Day
From The Album: TITLE TBA


"...In the heat of the moment, baby you would you hit me, baby you would kiss me
In the heat of the moment, you will say you hate me, you will say you love me
Then you won't accept my calls
When we are together, it can hellraising, it can be amazing
When we are together, it can be frustrating, you are my craving
Soon we're gonna hit the wall
Though we're up then down, can't get along, these moments are the best of all..."
