In Conversation With: Adam Hickok (Open Your Ears Records)

Our final guest in our Richmond Series (Part 2) is Adam, the owner/founder of Open Your Ears Records! An indie label based out of Richmond, we get to ask all the questions we've ever wanted to ask an "industry professional," especially one who can help chart the course for a band's success. Some questions include:

Do Spotify plays and listener numbers matter?

Is playing live and touring a necessity?

What role does a label have in a band's day-to-day operation?

How does one get signed to a label? To Open Your Ears specifically?

Does a label owner listen to their own bands for pleasure?


Adam is awesome. The label is awesome. He is a new Dad. There are so many things to be stoked on. So go check out OYE and support! If there was a label that shared the NostalgicEmoDads DNA, it has to be this one.
