Before becoming an actor, Johnn Depp left school and played in several rock bands before finally setting his sights on television and then film. He is now one of the biggest names in the biz and earns millions of dollars per project.
The actor with the bohemian flair lives with his long time love, French singer and actress Vanessa Paradis, and their two children, Lily-Rose and Jack. He has never stopped being passionate about music and being involved in some band or the other.
Depp decided to take his involvement one step further and founded his own music label, Unison Music. He plans to scout for new talent for the company in small venues in London, England.
A source close to the actor said that his film career and family life prevent him from devoting too much time to this new venture. However, he has found the right people to help him get it off the ground.
Johnny Depp got the idea to start his own his music label after helping the English band Babybird produce their new album. He paid for their studio time and even played guitar on several of their songs. He was also part of the band P, which included Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea.
