Red Wharf is a British independent record label. It was established in the mid 1990s by Graham Bowers as a vehicle to publish music and artists whose work was difficult to accurately place in any of the named genres, and consequently publishes works that spans avant garde/experimental/progressive/ambient/contemporary music.
Red Wharf's output initially was that of Graham Bowers; these included Of Marys Blood, Transgression, Eternal Ghosts, Pilgrim, and although relatively quiet for the last few years due to health problems, Red Wharf has recently released new works by new artists to the label.
The first of which being William Henshall's Dark Opus, followed by two Double Albums entitled Details 1&2 and Details 3&4, by Mel (Dr. Ian D Mellish).
Over the coming months Mel's back catalogue of twenty albums, and forthcoming works are scheduled for release, for updates and further information please visit Red Wharf
