CEO Chris Lieck
Chris Lieck's career in the music business has spanned over 3 decades. First as an artist, then as a studio owner/producer then as a CEO of Tejas Records. Tejas was the brainchild of Chris Lieck and it is a 20 year old company with several Grammy Awarded artists, 23 Grammy Nominations, and a back catalog of over 150 titles. Tejas Records is a brand that will always be noted as one of the most innovated, endorsed and established labels in Texas Music History.
The concept of the label, which he started in 1994, is much like the concept of his new pop label Record Ink. Talent development, image branding, fan base interaction and songwriting.
The premise of Record Ink. If you are a Record Ink. artist, your ego is left at the door. No interference from outside third parties. Dedication to your craft must be 100%. Zero attitude. You song write. You're a good singer. You can take a hit on the chin. Honest. Ethical. Record Ink. artists are hard workers with no attitude. We don't care if any artist has 1,000,000 views and 10,000 fans. We care how they are as artists and people. We care that they posses a star quality as an artist.
"Record Ink. is committed to development of up and coming potential stars. We house all the tools in-house to give the artist all the necessary tools to succeed. Furthermore, I have been in the label business now for 20 years and we were never under a major so we produced, manufactured, distributed, promoted and recorded/produced over 500 CDs. Most all were successful in our market. I self-funded Tejas Records. My label has produced Grammy winners, charted artists, Billboard Awarded artists and Record Ink. will do the same soon."
