• REALLY RAD BEGAN LIFE IN 2014 AS A SILLY NAME TO RELEASE OUR TERRIBLE EMO MUSIC UNDER.

     

    We were a small bedroom operation, only capable of dubbing two tapes at a time on thrifted cassette machines. We soon discovered we weren't the only band who made music that wasn't "traditionally marketable" but still wanted access to physical copies of our art. We began creating tapes for our friends' bands, friends of our friends' bands, etc. Soon we didn't know who we were making cassettes for, but we were having a blast doing it. 

    When we expanded our operations to offer CDs & vinyl in 2015, Really Rad grew from a corner of my small bedroom, to a slightly bigger bedroom, to a slightly bigger bedroom than THAT, until we could finally afford to devote an entire room of the house to Really Rad. 

    Fast forward years later and what began as a stupid joke has now accidentally released dozens of records from some of the most exciting names in underground music.

     

    As the stakes have continued to get higher and higher, so have we.
