NASHVILLE, TN (CelebrityAccess) — Independent Secretly Distribution announced the singing of a global distribution deal with Oh Boy Records, the music label founded by the late, great John Prine.<\/p>\n

Under the terms of the deal, Secretly will distribute Oh Boy’s catalog, including albums from the Grammy-winning Prine such as his 2018 release The Tree of Forgiveness, as well as Kelsey Waldon, Swamp Dogg, Alice Randall’s My Black Country, the musical companion to Randall’s book of the same name.<\/p>\n

Upcoming releases include music from Oh Boy artist Dan Reeder, whose new album Smithereens will be out in October, and recent signing Palmyra.<\/p>\n

Oh Boy Records is one of the oldest indie labels in the U.S. after it’s founding by John Prine in 1981 after the expiration of his major label deal.<\/p>\n

“Oh Boy is thrilled to be able to join Secretly Distribution at this time of growth and expansion for both companies. We’ve long been fans of the artists they work with, but in getting to know their team it also quickly became clear that Secretly holds dear the same independent values; the values that have fueled Oh Boy since its inception in 1981, and have seen Secretly Distribution build a truly independent global distribution network. We are honored to be represented by this excellent company and are excited to celebrate our collaboration in Nashville in September during AmericanaFest,” said Jody Whelan, Managing Partner.<\/p>\n

“SD has been fans of Oh Boy for so long – I have John Prine LPs that I swiped from my mom’s collection decades ago. They are a truly iconic American independent label – founded by artists, for artists looking for a sustainable way to release music outside of the major label system – and when I met Jody and Fiona it was clear immediately that their ethos perfectly aligns with what we strive for at SD. Oh Boy is a cornerstone of the vibrant Nashville scene, and we could not be more thrilled to work with them on both their incredible catalog and their current roster of next generation folk, country and blues artists,” added Josh Madell, Director of Artist & Label Strategy, Secretly Distribution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
