Greyday Productions
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Greyday Productions, sometimes called simply Greyday Records, is an independent record label based in Portland, Oregon, USA. Formed to release a new record from long-time friends Still Life, Greyday has grown from a musician run DIY collective to a full independent label. Operated mainly by Todd Berry (who moved to Portland from Los Angeles in 2001), Greyday has a constantly changing staff of friends and interns who help with a lot of the day to day operations. Greyday Records is distributed by NAIL Distribution.

[edit] Greydawn Records
Greydawn is operated by Greyday Records in Portland, Oregon. It is a collective of independent and self-releasing artists. More of an imprint than a label, it is a place for serious Portland area bands and musicians to gain national distribution and exposure while operating essentially the same as they would independently; it is run almost entirely by the artists on it (with exception to distribution, which is handled through accounts held by Greyday Records). Greydawn exists solely to help Portland artists get a leg up in starting out, and what it becomes is pretty much up to the artists who run it.
Bands:
- Jon Crocker
- Curious Hands
- The Mouse That Roared
- The Vulturines
[edit] Jaded Times
Jaded Times is a music based web-zine run by the Greyday staff, whomever that happens to be at the time. It has been on hiatus since mid 2004, replaced by a satirical political web blog maintained by Dave Mandell. It will relaunch in late 2006 and features music reviews, interviews with musicians and industry folk, features, comics, vegetarian recipes, etc.
