Magnetic Bunny Records is a kid-run, kid-band (18&) band/musician record label. It is run by sisters, Vivian and Midge from the band ShiSho.
Vivian: We started Magnetic Bunny because we thought kid-bands could get more recognition - and because at our shows, kids get encouraged because they think only grown-ups can do this - so we started this project. My sister and I have been saving money from our past shows, our allowance and gifts from relatives to put toward this record label. We are homeschooled - so this label is sort of like a GIANT class in-and-of-itself for us. We'd like to get some great kid bands on this label... so spread the word!
Midge: So, I named it when I was writing to Athsmatic Kitty (record label) and I accidently said (called them) "Magnetic Bunny." Ha ha ha ha ha!!!!
Vivian: In March/April, we plan to open our on-line music store at magneticbunny.com - for ALL Kid-Core bands who want to sell their music .. (regardless of home label). In June we will release a download compilation called "SCHOOL'S OUT!!" or something like that - celebrating the fact that school is out and the FUN OF SUMMER! We will be selling the compilation with 100% of sales going to a nonprofit or to help someone who can use it - probably to support baby Callum Robbins - the baby son of J. Robbins and Janet Morgan of Channels.

Vivian: Hopefully, by 2008 uhm, we can start signing bands (for contracts) in the United States and have really good distribution worked out by then.
Midge: Uhm... We would like too.. if you have any friends who are like... who have bands or anything... if they're indie, rock-n-roll, if they're hardcore, hip-hop, indie... whatever uhm.. just tell us about them (or tell them about us).. Oh yeah, emo... yeah all that kind of stuff.
