Question:

How do you audition for Clive Davis (the founder of Arista Records)?

I really love to sing and I can darn sing. I want to become a singer. I want it so desperately that when I'm out in public I tend to sing aloud hoping someone could give me a record deal. I love Paula DeAnda and I wish I could be just like her and she performed for Clive Davis.


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Paula DeAnda was asked to perform for Clive Davis by the Senior VP of the Arista Records A&R (Artist & Repertoire) department. Her song "Doing Too Much" was getting a lot of airplay.

You need to have some level of success first before the majors will hear you.
