Travis Tritt Opens His Own Record Label

Another country singer is parting ways with their record label and launching their own.  According to Billboard.com, Travis Tritt is launching his own label to regain control of his career.  However, unlike Toby Keith’s label, Travis won’t be signing other artists.

It’s strictly gonna be me — I don’t have any partners whatsoever on the creative end, just from a financial standpoint,” Tritt explains. “I feel like I’ve got enough experience over the years. I know what it takes to put a record together, so I’m not looking for people to come in and shape it.” Tritt plans to start working on a new album in earnest once the label is off the ground but says that he’s “always on the lookout for material” and has been talking to James Otto and Leroy Parnell about doing some songwriting with him.

Travis’ last release, The Storm, was in 2007.
