HAIL! Fredonia Records allows students to apply their knowledge of music promotion, copyrights, and contracts by working directly with artists. Through hands-on involvement, students actively contribute to the label’s operations, supporting local campus and community talent while gaining practical skills in marketing and management.

While this is a student run label, platinum selling record producer and manager Armand Petri assists the students in applying their skills to the real world. This includes event planning, promotion, social media, and much more.
