History

Homespun Records was started in 1967 in Alliance, Ohio by Patrick Cassidy as a record company for his band, friends and family. It later moved Syracuse, New York, and then Columbus, Ohio.

In 1995 Homespun Records reorganized in Las Vegas and began recording and remixing previous material for subsequent release. It now operates as a "web only" label offering sales and distribution on the Internet through Amazon.com, iTunes, and Internet radio stations.

gollark: At some point you probably hit physical limits and have to expand *slower*, but you aren't forced to stop.
gollark: Sure it is. Just expand more. The universe is quite large.
gollark: The smartphone you're probably sending this from is the product of hundreds of billions of currency units of development and capital investment and probably at least 50 countries worth of supply chain.
