The Brooklyn-based trio Wet left Columbia and dropped its third album, 'Letter Blue', independently -- which frontwoman Kelly Zutrau describes as a “trade-off.”
There were different people who had come in that we didn’t really align with creatively, and we felt like there was this baggage. When there’s a lot of money involved — as there often is at a major label — there’s this pressure to make something that’s going to make the money back. And we made a really hard decision that we don’t want any expectations for this third record; there’s basically no point in making it if it’s going to be about that.
The most concrete thing that I’ve noticed [as an independent artist] is the timeline. You can move much more quickly because you’re working with people who want to work on it regardless of budget, because you don’t have a big budget. There are definitely things I miss about Columbia, but I think overall, we were able to make something that I’m a lot more proud of. For me, with this third album, I thought, “If I want to make money, why would I be in music?” Figure out what your goals are.
