We see our label being about people coming together, meeting, singing and sharing that experience with each other.those are the times that we remember forever. It's about the power of music and the bands that create it. Founded on respe
ct for music and the creative process, a goal of discovering new artists and undying integrity in everything we do, Deep Elm strives to further its reputation as one of the world's most reliable sources of quality independent recordings. A small but dedicated team provide all label services on an in-house basis including worldwide promotion, marketing, licensing, publicity, design, internet-related operations and our hi-res digital download store (www.deepelmdigital.com).

Our music has appeared in feature films, indie films, movies trailers, TV commercials, TV shows, movie soundtracks, video games, trade shows and online promotional campaigns for clients including ABC, NBC, CBS, HBO, AMC, Fox, MTV, VH1, Discovery, Fuel TV, ESPN, Activision, Warner Bros, Sony Pictures, Paramount, Columbia, the NBA, the NFL and shows ranging from Mad Men, CSI and The Sopranos to Teen Mom, Fantasy Factory and Nitro Circus.
In 2012, Deep Elm celebrates its 17 year anniversary as an independently owned and operated record label. Deep Elm is part of a threatened breed of "true independents" that exist for the love of music. Most so-called "indie labels" are, in fact, funded and distributed by major record labels and their affiliates. Not Deep Elm. On a completely self-sufficient basis and without major label support or distribution, Deep Elm competes in an industry dominated by corporate giants. We put out the records that move us and support the bands we love. So if you are a fan, please support.as we survive on word of mouth. Don't forget the songs that make you smile, and the songs that make you cry. Let's all make sure these bands will continue to be there when you need them.
