A decade in the music industry, leading artist for a global music enterprise and CEO of his own recording label, Chicago’s Gustavo Bands, has crafted himself quite the resume to this point in his career. He hasn’t even released his career first album yet. Spending time helping others reach their goals in the industry for the first part of his career, Gustavo Bands is ready to really show the music industry the talent he possesses as an artist as he is prepping the release of multiple projects in 2022. It’s time for Gustavo Bands.
In high school, Gustavo Bands and his childhood friends constructed their own recording studio in a closet. By age 15, he knew that a career in the music industry was what he was meant to do. “I always liked music and always imagined myself being the one on stage performing for thousands of people,” says Gustavo Bands. As he became more and more dedicated to his craft, he began to cross paths with more and more like-minded individuals. The more people he met over the years that took music as seriously as he did, the more Gustavo Bands was able to find his voice.
When he first imagined himself in the music industry, Gustavo Bands assumed it would be for his talents as an artist. A decade ago, when he first began to make a name for himself in the industry, it was for his work as a songwriter for local artists.

From there, he moved on to helping with creative development for artists and eventually became the CEO of the record label ThurlBred Entertainment. While it was a difficult transition, Gustavo Bands shares that what he has learned on the business side of the music world has helped him as an artist.
While he continues to work as CEO, Gustavo Bands has simultaneously been hard at work in the studio as of late. Claiming to have around 1,000 songs ready to be released at any moment, he has announced that there are four projects ready to be released in 2022, including a trilogy of EPs that will put more of the Chicago rapper’s pop-trap stylings on display.
Throughout his time in the industry, staying inspired and motivated has been key for Gustavo Bands. Whether it’s competing against himself to be the best at whatever he is doing or looking up to artists like Drake and Future and learning from the successes and failures of their careers, the Chicago rapper takes all he can from his inspirations and funnels it back into his work. As 2022 looms, Gustavo Band is someone you’re going to want to keep an eye on.
