Emote Records was founded in 2001 by singer/songwriter, Gregory Douglass. Emote Records headquarters is nestled in the humble Green Mountains of Burlington, Vermont where it was established. Douglass independently formed the label in conjunction with his third studio release, "Teeter" and has since produced seven full-length, independent titles under the label, as well as an ongoing digital bootleg series called "Retro Active".Douglass' evocative, alternative sound "channels everyone from Stevie Wonder to Fiona Apple in a way that's terrifyingly mature for someone so young" according to Instinct Magazine. With seven critically acclaimed, independent CDs under his belt, the 28-year old Vermont native has shared the stage with artists like They Might Be Giants, Third Eye Blind, The Weepies, Jason Mraz, Regina Spektor and Margaret Cho. Douglass is touring extensively in support of his latest release, BATTLER, featuring duets with friends and fellow Vermonters Grace Potter (Grace Potter & The Nocturnals/ Hollywood Records) and Anais Mitchell (Righteous Babe Records).In the ever-changing industry we call music, Emote Records is one of many independent labels helping to shape the future of independent music. We believe that true artistic freedom within the music business will prevail and that honest music speaks for itself.
