Band Websitewww.poptownrecords.com
Band MembersPoptown features smashing artists such as.. Thunderboss, The Scared Stiffs, Michael Weston King, She Wolves, Chris Laubis, Richie Scarlet, Lovemaker, Krissteen, and more! Plus amazing compilations!
Influences We are an independent record label featuring new artists but not new trends. If you are a fan of music from the 60's, 70's or even the 80's, we're sure to have some music that will interest you. We are interested in what we call bands that 'make music for the sake of making music'. No fads, no sell-outs, no rap, loops, or pre-fab nonsense.
Sounds LikeIf you prefer bands that have been influenced by Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, T-Rex or Pink Floyd, then you're at the right place. If you wonder "Why doesn't anybody write songs like The Beatles or The Stones anymore?" Then we're on the same page.

   About Poptown Records
  It's hard to believe that more than 10 years have come and gone since Poptown Records started up in 1994. Poptown has survived the curse of the Seattle scene and has watched the worst of the boy bands move beyond puberty. We are an independent record label featuring new artists but not new trends. If you are a fan of music from the 60's, 70's or even the 80's, we're sure to have some music that will interest you. We are interested in what we call bands that 'make music for the sake of making music'. No fads, no sell-outs, no rap, loops, or pre-fab nonsense. If you prefer bands that have been influenced by Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, T-Rex or Pink Floyd, then you're at the right place. If you wonder "Why doesn't anybody write songs like The Beatles or The Stones anymore?" Then we're on the same page. Besides the sounds of classic rock, we've got some guitar rock, acoustic rock, blues, punk and even a little glam. Old School. As long as it's real, we'll carry it.
 Based in New York, the world's most competitive city, Poptown had to fight hard to be recognized. At first, the novice marketing department was having difficulty launching artists like Lovemaker and Pin Ups. If it wasn't for the raw tenacity of the bands, the company might not have lived to fight another day.
 Then, in 1996, Poptown teamed up with People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) to produce a compilation record which was aimed at raising awareness of animal rights issues. This idea took off and major artists of the day (Dee Snider of Twisted Sister, Richie Scarlet of the Ace Frehley Band, Enuff Z'nuff, etc.) were eager to get involved. Even punk rock goddess Joan Jett joined with The Characters on a track called "Last of a Dying Breed" because of contractual reasons her record company couldn't allow her name to be used.
  The PETA compilation, entitled "Splitting Hares", took off and brought the name Poptown with it. After that, it was hard to keep up with the demand for more Poptown releases. As our roster of artists grew, so did our audience.
  Today, Poptown Records remains a very popular source of new music in the industry. Coming of age in this day of internet technology has given Poptown great opportunities to reach markets that were not accessible when we started out. Recently, Poptown has teamed up with CDFuse.com so that anyone anywhere anytime can use a major credit card to order from our growing catalog.
  Poptown embraces being an indie label. As you can see we encourage fans to submit their own pictures of their favorite bands and we enjoy the personal emails and communication back and forth. We are proud of our artists and of the music we deliver. We are also interested in what you think of us. You're questions and comments are welcome. Please contact us via email at info@PoptownRecords.com and tell us how we're doing.
  Thank you for your support!!
