History

[edit]

Paper Garden Records was formed in July 2005 in Nashville, Tennessee by Bryan Michael Vaughan as part of an entrepreneurship program at Belmont University.[4]

Paper Garden's first signing was Eagle*Seagull, an American indie rock band from Lincoln, Nebraska.[5] Eagle*Seagull gained considerable attention in the independent music scene following the release of their debut self-titled album. Paper Garden Records subsequently signed Peasant, Darla Farmer, Emanuel and the Fear, Mighty Tiger, The City and Horses, Dad Rocks!, Pree, Conveyor, Fierce Creatures, Team Genius and Little Tybee.[3][6]

In 2014, Paper Garden moved its office to Downtown Brooklyn.[2]

On January 10, 2016, Paper Garden Records announced that it had signed with Sub Pop Licensing,[7] the licensing division of Sub Pop Records. Other labels currently signed to Sub Pop Licensing include Sub Pop, Ghostly International, Hardly Art, Misra Records, Suicide Squeeze Records, and Third Man Records.[8] Sub Pop Licensing has licensed music for and secured placements in countless films and television shows.[8]
