[edit] History

When Newsboys lead singer Peter Furler and the band’s manager Wes Campbell first came to the USA, the last thing they thought they would become is record label owners.

Ten years later, and tired of sleeping in his tour bus bunk with hundreds of demo’s piled high (given to him from artists he met on tour). Furler decided it was time to do something about it, so Inpop Records was launched with Campbell and Australian friend and record executive Dale Bray in July 1999. "Traveling the globe, we’ve seen thousands of bands and artists. We have a calling to give these musicians the same opportunity Newsboys were given" says Furler. The heart of inpop is to discover the best artists around the world that understand the grace of the gospel of Jesus Christ, and also have something new and unique to offer to the world of Christian music.
