We recently connected with Chris Bianchi and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Chris, thanks for joining us today. So let’s jump to your mission – what’s the backstory behind how you developed the mission that drives your brand?
Our mission from day 1 has always been to serve the art. That is what each human has inside of them that is unique and special. Their own thoughts and creations. Our goal at hand is to help that art be seen and or heard around the world. While doing so, teaching, helping, and protecting our artists as a family along the way.
Give them a voice.

Chris, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?

How’d you build such a strong reputation within your market?
In the music business, a good reputation is your most valuable asset. Treating others with respect and fairness, just as you’d want to be treated, has always stood the test of time. Honesty and authenticity not only build trust but also create lasting relationships that can open doors and sustain a career. At the end of the day, how you conduct yourself speaks louder than any success or achievement.
We’d love to hear a story of resilience from your journey.
Resilience has been a cornerstone of my journey in the entertainment industry. Coming from the middle of nowhere in Ohio, self-made and self-taught, I started this path long before satellite and internet were staples of daily work. Facing challenges head-on, I’ve learned to adapt and overcome, navigating an industry dominated by giants while remaining independent. Every obstacle has been a lesson, and every success a testament to perseverance and hard work.
