Aus Indie Label Coolin’ By Sound Inks Global Deal With US Distributor

Aussie label Coolin’ By Sound’s reach has drastically increased with news the Brisbane-based indie has signed an international distribution deal with North Carolina-based distributor Redeye Worldwide.

The new deal will see the US company – who also works with fellow Aus labels Wing Sing Records (The Peep Tempel) and Hysterical Records (Wet Lips, Shrimpwitch) alongside Mom+Pop, Daptone and more - take Coolin’ By Sound’s physical and digital output to a massive new audience.

“In terms of being able to do more for the bands we love on our label we feel so privileged to be welcomed into the Redeye team,” Coolin’ By Sound co-owner Steve Bell said.

“I’ve known Ant previously through dealings at my record shop, but working with him now as we transition into the company it’s obvious how committed he is to the bands he works with and just how passionate he is about indie music in general.

“I’m such a big fan of so many labels and artists all over the world who operate under the Redeye umbrella, it’s an exciting new vista for us and we couldn’t be happier.” 

Redeye Australian rep Antonio Foxlee added: “A few of us at Redeye have been fans of the artists Shelly and Belly at Coolin’ By Sound have been releasing for years now, so at BIGSOUND we were pretty excited to meet. 

“It’s safe to say their roster is going to be right at home at Redeye, we’re very much looking forward to representing them worldwide and connecting them with a global audience.”

With Thigh Master, Shrapnel, Spiral Stairs, Tape/Off and The Gametes already on their roster, Coolin’ By Sound will release new albums from Dumb Things (November 8) and Adam Gibson in the near future.
