If you can't beat 'em, start your own.That would be a fitting motto for
You've Changed Records, a new label that has just been formed by
Steve Lambke of
the Constantines,
Dan Ramano of
Attack in Black and
Jesse Stein of
SS Cardiacs and
Miracle Fortress.
"You've Changed is a record label run by musicians," says their
MySpace page. "Musicians who know
what they want from a record label. And what they don't want."
The label was originally formed as a way for Attack and Black and
Baby Eagle - Lambke's solo project - to release a split EP together. (That's slated for release this summer.) But then the collaborators decided to add
Shotgun Jimmie to their roster, and it's growing from there.
"Shotgun Jimmie had been recording a new record at the Attack In Black
studio," says the site, "and after a brief discussion one night after a session, the
decision was made that You've Changed would be releasing
Still Jimmie
on LP and digital download on March 10th 2009."
The label founders also promise "much more by other wonderful Canadian artists to
come," so stay tuned...
