Would a record company sign a deal with artist like me?

Question

I'm Carah, I'm 18, and I've been writing my own songs since...forever. I play the guitar and all that good stuff and all my songs are super sarcastic and satirical. People totally go crazy for them and I've played for my high school and for my town n' stuff like that. I recorded one of my songs on garageband and it's pretty good but what I want more than anything is to actually record in a studio and make a profesh cd. But what I'd like to know is if any record company would sign me since my song aren't serious...but I swear they're really good! (I would settle for recording them in just a studio and paying for it myself but I'm too poor for that.)

Answer 1

Don't stop your dream over a little money. Go smaller potatoes early if you have to, but get that studio time.

Answer 2

As a former country radio DJ I recall the 2 requirements for a good song are:
1) Is is a sound you can't find with any other artist?
2 It has to be appealing to a wide audience.
Look how many years it took Hank Williams Jr (Bocephus) to find his own style!
Good luck, don't give up!

Answer 3

How do you know you're too poor to rent a little studio time? Make some phone calls. You can do it.

Answer 4

Make some demos and send them to every record company, they WILL get listened to, and hope for the best!!

Answer 5

one of the best ways to get known is to send your songs into some radio stations
who knows
maybe people will like your songs and you'll be famous in
no time

Answer 6

I think you should go directly to the record company and bring your music. You have absolutely nothing to loose.

Answer 7

send a song in to Howard Stern - he might play it
