Harriet Records

Harriet Records was an American independent record label based out of Cambridge, Massachusetts.[1] The label was founded by Harvard history professor Tim Alborn in 1989. The label was named for the children's book Harriet the Spy.[1] The majority of Harriet's releases were indie pop 7" vinyl singles, but eventually they started releasing full length CDs. Harriet is a bit legendary in the indie world for giving a number of notable artists their start. John Darnielle, Wimp Factor 14, My Favorite, Crayon, Six Cents and Natalie, Vehicle Flips, Tullycraft, and The Magnetic Fields all released early records on Harriet. After forty-five singles and ten CDs Harriet shut its doors in 1998.[1]
