About Me

Tricycle Records is a small label based in San Francisco, CA. Our philosophy is simple. We believe artists should maintain control of their music through the production process. Once a record is mastered we step in to distribute and promote it. We provide our bands with a strong media package along with PR, booking and distribution through the Tricycle Records catalog. We support independent artists that need to professionalize their look, sell records and increase their presence in the Indie music industry. At the end of the day, the music is what matters most. We are always happy to listen.

Bands We Represent
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

The Blacks

"Perhaps the real genius of the Blacks’ debut record is that it conveys subtle and sophisticated narratives in musical language that is utterly primal; this record is lusty, powerful, driven, and, at times, violent."-Coke Machine Glow

............................

The Union Trade

"Like space cowboys, The Union Trade mix the melancholy melodies of alt-country with the psychedelic sound-wash of shoegaze, for a blend that moves seamlessly through genres and should please fans of everyone from Mogwai to the Jayhawks." -The Deli SF :

............................:

The Frail

"The perfect fix for anyone waiting for the next Postal Service record.The Count On This EP, is full of big electronic beats mixed with indie rock sensibilities, tipping their caps to Hot Chip at times, then to Death Cab for Cutie at others." -Future Sounds:

- myspace

............................

"The Aimless Never Miss create a giddy atmosphere with soaring vocals, densely layered guitars, bass, and keyboards. It’s the sort of music that makes it impossible to sulk as your muscles twitch involuntarily into something resembling dancing." - Flavorpill

- myspace


............................

Aim Low Kid

"The songs are desolate, elegiac, and sound as if pulled from a deep well, especially the country-flecked ìGonna Die,î which has a surprisingly warm syrup of bassline and more of that insolent, scratchy fiddle. How can this be pop music? Weíre not completely sure."

If Nobody Knew

"Rock music that grooves like the late 80’s and haunts like Hitchcock" -Facing New York
