Windstar Records

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Windstar Records is a record label based out of Snowmass, Colorado that was founded by John Denver in 1976. The label primarily caters to folk music artists and bands, and has most notably signed acts such as John Denver (the founder), Fat City, The Starland Vocal Band, and Tom Crum. Originally founded under RCA as a subsidiary of that label, Windstar broke out as an independent label in 1986 (when RCA unexpectedly dropped Denver).
