Young Love Records is an artist run label, based in New Paltz, NY, that loosely began in 2004 as a musicians collective. Gary Levitt and Erica Quitzow of Setting Sun and Quitzow wanted to get their music out there and pool their resources. The obvious thing to do was to promote under the umbrella of a record label with one name. Erica came up with the moniker Young Love Records by using positive word association. Young and Love. Aaah I feel better just typing it. Inspired by DIY spirit and labels like Merge, Sub Pop, and Saddle Creek…Young Love Records has come a long way since 2004. Now distributed worldwide by Red Eye Distribution (Kill Rock Stars, Barsuk, Warp etc…) it has grown into a 5 band roster, which includes Omaha’s own, Landing on the Moon, marking the first expansion beyond the New York area. With 3 of it’s artists touring nationally/internationally and selling many records worldwide, YLR is still run by artists in a creative and fun manner. It’s just music after all, and it’s supposed to be about a good time right?
