Cosy Recordings is a record label sprung out of the club Cosy Den, run by Karin Ringqvist together with Mattias Jansson. The label's catalogue consists of 23 hand-made and limited edition releases with artists we both agree on admiring a lot.

Cosy Den is a club night run by Mattias, probably Sweden's most pertinacious promoter of indie concerts.

A short bio:

The club started 2004 with Johan Sävestrand as the co-founder and co-organizer during the first 16 months, when bands from all over Sweden and also Finland, the UK and the US came to play shows in the living-room of a leasehold flat on the outskirts of Gothenburg. It is now based in and around Stockholm. The focus is live music - simply setting up gigs that Mattias wants to see and hopes others will be interested in, too.
