We do limited runs of records pressed through an in-state, local pressing plant. Each pressing is limited to 250. Merch is typically limited to 25 when possible.
We like keeping things limited and special.
It was the year 2016 when Tyler found himself in a peculiar position. His band Another Mistake had recently broken up, leaving him with nothing to spend his money on. That’s when he had an idea – why not start a record label?
Thus, the Life and Death Brigade was born.
All jokes aside, we started as a label to press music to vinyl and showcase bands that might not have been given a fair shot or be pressed to vinyl otherwise.
We press our records through a local record pressing plant less than 30 minutes from Louisville and prefer to keep as much production “in-house” (literally) as we possibly can.
Our label is more than just a business. It’s a passion project, a labor of love, and a platform to showcase talented artists who may not have been given a fair shot otherwise. Every penny spent goes right back into the label and goes towards supporting and releasing bands we represent and believe in.
A. LDB is small record label from Louisville, Ky run by Tyler Short and Ashton Clemons. We started releasing vinyl copies of various bands we believed in around the midwest 5 years ago, in 2016.

This record label started as a way to support artists and uplift bands we think deserve more attention. Every penny spent goes right back into the label and goes towards supporting and releasing bands we represent and believe in.

A. Nope, the fest is a separate entity entirely – run by Ryan Storey, Alex Rhema and new additions, Colin and Julia. Go to ldbfest502.com or follow @ldbfest502 to keep posted on all of the latest updates!
*Colin and Julia also run the @502shows accounts among a handful of other things. We could not handle running a label and the fest as well as they do at the same time haha
