DELAWARE
MUSIC
NETWORK
Delaware (and the surrounding area) is full of talented artists, but talent alone is rarely enough to break through.
​
Traditional record labels wait for proof of profit before offering support, leaving many artists without access to the tools, guidance, and connections needed to grow.
Independent artists are expected to build full brands, market their work, and navigate the industry, often without resources or mentorship.
​
Delaware Music Network exists to close that gap.
THE SOLUTION
Artist Development Without Profit Pressure
Delaware Music Network operates like a record label...
But with a nonprofit mission.
​
Through grants, donations, and community support, we provide artists with professional development opportunities while allowing them to maintain ownership, creative freedom, and control of their careers.
Instead of extracting value from artists, we reinvest resources directly into their growth.
