A & R Records

About Me

> We are a new Record Label here in New Zealand, who are devoted to bringing a new generation of Ska, Reggae, Rockabilly, Punk, and fusions of all into the mainstream of New Zealand music and The World!! Looking for overseas artists to represent, promote, and distribute here also... Our first endeavor is the new Album from the Managers entitled "Take It Or Leave It"; Released this May17th. I luv this band!! As for me I guess I'm sort of a "Rude Mod" being mostly into Ska and 60's Mod music. I've crashed many scooters, had brawls with rockers downa pub, managed MANY bands, and always promoted the Nz versions of what our English & Jamaican Brothers have given us to grow.I started working in the Music industry as a Ska DJ playin all the pubs and clubs and got into managing Nz Bands playing Ska; eventually got a job working at Revolver Studios, which about 6 months after opening, landed the Crowded House Album "Together Alone"... and I've never looked back. Managed a Punk Venue called "The BrickYard" for a while in downtown Vancouver. Now the Saga continues with my own record label back here in good ole New Zealand..... THIS IS A VERY COOL PLACE TO MAKE MUSIC!!!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

All Ska, Reggae, Rockabilly, and Punk bands everywhere looking to break through here in New Zealand. Also anyone dedicated to making my kinda music; those people out there who share the same passion for Ska, Reggae, Rockabilly, and 60's music.
