Round 13 Records

Round 13 Records is based in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota and was formed in 2005 by members of the band TONNAGE. Round 13 Records describes itself as a collective – not a label. It does this to underscore exactly how it differs from a traditional label. Bands don’t “sign” with Round 13 Records, nor does the label demand an exclusive commitment from them. What Round 13 Records requires from their artists is simply a passion for music and the willingness to work to promote both themselves as well as the rest of the Round 13 family - the bands are what make Round 13 work.



Round 13's roster has included Midwest bands Tonnage, 20 Dollar Love, The Ugly Fat Kids, The Dunwich Whores, The Skullcranes, Poney, The Summer People, Six Six Crush, Sick Machine, Droids Attack, Sturgeon Valley Nights, Helliphant, Bloodcow and Imperial Battlesnake. Some of these bands have moved on but the core group remains the same.
