Hopeless Records celebrates its 20th anniversary today. Hopeless over the years has hosted many artists such as The Wonder Years, Taking Back Sunday, The Used, Dillinger Four, All Time Low and Bayside on their roster.

An online statement from label founder and president Louis Posen reads:

"There is a proverb that says, ‘If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.’ We recognize these past 20 years have everything to do with the fortune and opportunity to work with amazing fans, co-workers, artists, managers, agents, distributors, retailers, media outlets, individuals and organizations. There aren't words to describe the level of gratitude and appreciation we feel for all those who have supported Hopeless Records and Sub City these first 20 years. We hope we have given to you as much as you have given to us.”
