About Us
Warrior Records and Distribution, a division of L.A. Entertainment, Inc., was formed by President/Staff Producer, Jim Ervin and established with national distribution in 2004. The label proceeds with the ideal of offering opportunities to talented artists who wish to embrace the best of what an active indie company can offer, while also enjoying major label distribution channels. Warrior releases some products via Universal Music Distribution, other products via Entertainment One, and even some regionally through various one-stops and other independent outlets.
This business started with the independent. From the 1970's through today, the distribution channels have been dominated by what is now down to three major label entities (Sony/BMG, Universal/EMI, and WEA). But, as we watch various new technologies become commonplace, we continue seeing a shift back toward the independent. Sales attributed globally to indie outlets continue to rise. We are the ones who take the initial risk, develop the artists, package the products, and create a demand for it. Independents are the A&R departments for the majors.
Warrior thanks all companies that are involved in independent releases, for they strive to support the creative spark that drives this industry.
