I Love Rock n' Roll!

About Me

Company History
Gearhead Records exploded out of the gate with its first release in April 2000 and has since released some of the best punk n roll around. There's something here for almost everybody, from Detroit-style rock n' roll to melodic punk and power-pop.
The label continues to actively search out new bands to work with, and has recently signed outlaw country band Hellbound Glory and psychobilly rockers The Mansfields. If you think your band should be heard by the Gearhead staff, first make sure you're familiar with our catalog, then email to see if we're accepting demos or not. If you do send a demo make sure you include all your contact information, not just a myspace page and a full bio!
Owner Michelle Haunold has over 25 years of music industry experience and continues to be a very hands on owner, personally selecting and working from start to finish on each record the company releases.
Our retail boutique Gearhead Records and Stuff opened to the public in January 2007. Carrying the entire Gearhead Records catalog and merch line as well aseverything from new and used independent LPs and CDs, to biker, tattoo and hotrod inspired clothing, gifts and accessories, we've created a little piece of our world for our fans. Come visit us at 39 5th St. Suite C Woodland CA 95695, Tuesday through Saturday Noon- 7PM. Our phone number is 530-662-8277.
