When Three Ring Records was formed
in 2003, it was one of our goals to expand into a collective of
like-minded labels who share some of our core philosophies: helping
struggling bands with the talent but not the direction to release
music on their own, enlisting bands as a "family", and
supporting community efforts. Here are Three Ring's label partners:
 500
Records
It is with pleasure that we introduce
a fine addition to our ever-expanding family: 500 Records! San
Francisco's own 500 Records, a dynamic record label, is brought
to us by our mighty friends (and current Three Ring / 500 band)
Form and Fate, and is sure to be an instant winner in the Bay
Area indie scene. While Three Ring has leaned a bit more towards
indie-pop, 500 Records is sure to sate your craving for the more
esoteric.
500 Records is an artist run record label whose staff is all a
part of the San Francisco indie music scene. 500 Records was established
in 2005 as a music collective, to help artists and bands who did
not have the attention of a legitimate record label. Over the
past 3 years they have worked with many great bands and have increased
their usefulness to bands by moving towards being a legitimate
record label. In September 2008, they partnered with Three Ring
Records, whose experience and enthusiasm for local music has allowed
500 Records to secure full national and international distribution
in both the physical and digital realm.

 Mission
Freak Records
We are pleased to announce a partnership
with Iowa City, Iowa's Mission Freak Records. Based in the eastern
corner of the state that paved the way for our new president,
Mission Freak Records is a label and collective dedicated to the
development of the Midwest music scene. Working with a number
of musicians in several different genres ranging from indie rock
to experimental dance music, Mission Freak is giving voice to
the next generation of artists from America's heartland.
The owners of the Mission Freak label are the same people who
put on Iowa City's Mission Creek Festival, an event that has earned
a reputation as one of the best festivals at which to hear daring
new music, even before it reaches the underground-gazing eyes
of the likes of Pitchfork and Stereogum. Bringing their love for
discovering unknown music through promotion, Mission Freak Records
now supports the recorded endeavors of independent music's next
wave.
