I’m really pleased to announce that I have joined the enigmatic and diverse collective of artists at CIA Records, Houston, Texas. The 3 EP recording and distribution deal starts now and will see three new Eps released digitally and physically in 2025.
C.I.A. Records is an independent label originally founded in 1978 by members of the Houston, Texas punk band Really Red. It emerged organically from sounds performed and recorded in garages, yards, and warehouses, nurtured by strong friendships, a vibrant underground music scene, independent record stores and a handful of non-commercial radio stations. In the late 70’s and early 80’s, the label filled an urgent need to confront institutional violence perpetuating a culture of fear that dominated Houston at the time. Over four decades it's grown into a platform for musical experimentation and risk-taking that continues to reflect a broad range of ideas and experiences today. It has been, is now, and always will be a vanguard for transgressive music from Houston and around the world.
