History
At the outset, the label was started with the goal of giving up and coming Canadian artists an opportunity to take their careers to the next level. Now five years and over fourteen releases later, it is widely regarded as one of the strongest independent Canadian labels in the country. Black Box Recordings is currently distributed by Fontana North in Canada.
As the label grew, so did BBR's involvement in the careers of their artists, which developed into the artist management element of the company. Over the years, the management initiatives have expanded to include other artists of varying styles and profiles who are not signed to the Black Box Recordings record label.
"We pride ourselves on working with honest, genuine artists from a vast array of styles and profiles. We are, at the heart, an artist development company set on giving hard working artists the best shot at making a career in the music industry." - Black Box Music Facebook.
