First and foremost, we'd like to express our thoughts and prayers to everyone in the Nashville community as they recover and rebuild from one of the greatest floods in the area’s history. The statement that has been swarming around is so accurate “WE ARE NASHVILLE.”

As we enter the fifth month of 2010, we can already look back and see a great string of releases from the label(s): Adie, Manafest, Demon Hunter, The Classic Crime, Fair, Living Sacrifice, Secret and Whisper, and Number One Gun. We have also seen some amazing debuts from Jaymes Reunion, Sent By Ravens, Write This Down, The Letter Black, Queens Club and an EP from Poema. Looking ahead we have a lot of exciting releases coming down the pike - check out the updates below to see what is going on!

Thank you for your support and interest in sharing our artists’ music & lives!
