Kimberly

Kimberly Records was founded in the early 1970s by music entrepreneur Kimberly Johnson, aiming to promote independent artists across various genres. Initially focusing on folk and rock, the label gained prominence in the late 1970s with the rise of punk and new wave, signing influential acts such as The Modernists and The Electric Daisies. Throughout the 1980s, Kimberly expanded its roster to include pop and alternative artists, achieving commercial success with chart-topping albums. In the 1990s, the label embraced the burgeoning grunge and indie rock scenes, launching the careers of bands like The Rainy Days and The Urban Shadows. Despite facing challenges during the digital transition in the early 2000s, Kimberly adapted by embracing online distribution and signing emerging artists in the digital landscape. Today, Kimberly Records is recognized for its diverse catalog and commitment to nurturing talent, leaving a lasting impact on the independent music scene. Its legacy continues to influence new generations of musicians and labels.
