As announced in our January interview with founder Syd Butler, Frenchkiss Records has launched a boutique distribution company, Frenchkiss Label Group, focused on growing visibility for indie labels in the spirit of communities such as Dischord, Rough Trade and Touch & Go.

(Surfer Blood, The Drums), LA-based Jaxart (Races, Avi Buffalo), NYC’s Pendu Sound (Chelsea Wolfe, Mater Suspiria Vision, Von Haze), NJ-based Underwater Peoples (Ice Choir, Mountain Man, Real Estate) and LA/Brooklyn’s White Iris Records (Best Coast, Oberhofer, Other Lives).

Says Frenchkiss: “Since we’ve partnered with The Orchard, we can attest that we’re working with the best talent around when it comes to delivering and streamlining distribution and adopting new platforms for music. We’re striving to recreate the handshake mentality of pioneered label communities while using the Orchard’s innovative methods, in order to be the best resource for those looking to grow with us.”
