album still being promoted

version 1: December 1, 2010

2 notes

Decca is owned by Universal, does a lot of "nostalgia," jazz, classical, folk as well as pop; does not list Aiken among artists

Hickory is distributed through Sony but not owned by it?

51,000

11,000
There is also an Xmas album thru TRP that sold 27,000

Second album is in limbo while Disney reorganizes labels, despite 3 singles out
4,000 Verve is owned by Universal, heavily classical/traditional

Dream Merchants is Randy Jackson’s dance label

Sold some country music online only

Looking for label for new album-in-progress

went on Broadway instead

Second album had singles released before she was dropped

Label folded; self-released holiday album in December 2010
