A major label has made an offer to obtain LOVE 45’s exclusive recording services, and we signed on March 6, 2004! LOVE 45 is now signed to the Sony affiliated Label, Studio E Records.
We are very pleased and proud to be able to reach and sign an agreement with the label. This engagement, made possible in part through the extraordinary support of people like you at A&R Online, marks the beginning of a new opportunity
