Gifts to PIONEER RECORDS contribute to...
Pioneer Records is a student-run record label in the Rowland School of Business at Point Park University. Founded in 2014 by students in the Sports, Arts, and Entertainment Management degree program, Pioneer Records is a learning laboratory that provides undergraduate and graduate students with real-world music industry experiences and opportunities to work directly with recording artists, studio engineers, venue managers and other industry professionals.
Each fall, students select three artists to be the next “Pioneer Stars.” The label partners with Red Caiman Media Studios, an advanced commercial recording facility located in downtown Pittsburgh, to produce a professional single. One star will also get a music video produced for their single and another star is gifted a Gibson Guitar thanks to the label’s partnership with Gibson Gives. All of these are presented at an artist showcase at Stage AE in the spring.
