Sad Gnome Records
Sad Gnome Records was a small, independent record label, based in Oslo and London. It was established in 2006 with the purpose of releasing The Indelicates' first single, "We Hate The Kids". 2007 saw Sad Gnome expand, putting out debut singles by Remodel, Joe Rybicki and My Name Is Red. In December 2007, they released A Sad Gnome's Dream, a free, limited edition, download only compilation featuring exclusive or rare tracks from the label's roster and friends.
Sad Gnome kicked off 2008 by introducing 17-year-old Lily Rae to the record buying public with her debut single, "Bad Film". In addition to further Remodel singles and one by Brighton's The Ne'er-Do-Wells, the label also collaborated with New Jersey publishers Abaton Book Company in releasing an EP by avant-garde songstress Marianne Nowottny. Entitled Marianne Nowottny & The All American Band, it received favourable reviews in music magazines as diverse as Plan B, The Wire and Record Collector.Discography
