Chicago’s Sooper Records, the little label that cares, is going off like a rocket with new music and great ideas
CHICAGO “Our pitch is always, we love this record. We believe in you. And we will do everything that we can for this release,” said Glenn Curran, co-founder of Sooper Records.
From its early days as a cassette label to a propulsive and successful 2020, Sooper (which includes co-founder Nnamdi Ogbonnaya and co-owner Sen Morimoto) has made a name for itself by working with, fighting for, and celebrating artists first. It is this philosophy which makes the label’s releases, like 2019′s “Next to the Sun” by Kaina or last year’s debut from Luke Titus, so captivating.
