our record label

Our chosen record label is Touch and Go Records which is an independent record label based in america. Touch and Go Records started in 1980. In early 1981, Touch and Go Records was officially born. Corey Rusk, for the first couple years of Touch and Go Records' life, ran the business part of it from his bedroom in his grandmother's house in Ohio, and Tesco Vee ran the promotional part of it from his apartment in Michigan. Then Tesco moved to Washington DC, leaving the label in Corey's hands.Touch and Go began to move beyond the hardcore genre, while also increasing the frequency of its release schedule. Releases during this time period included albums from Die Kreuzen, Big Black, Killdozer and many others. In 1990, Touch and Go began to provide manufacturing and distribution services for other independent labels who shared similar ideals. Over the past 15 years, Touch and Go is proud to have provided manufacturing and distribution services for such influential labels. In keeping with 1990 being a pivotal year, Quarterstick Records, Touch and Go's "sister label," came into being, releasingmany successful albums. Since its inception, Quarterstick has developed its own individual, eclectic identity through the releases of groups such as the Bad Livers and Calexico.
