Castle Face

Welcome to Castle Face, a California-based music label founded by John Dwyer of Thee Oh Sees, Matt Jones, and Brian Lee Hughes. With an impressive roster of talented artists and performers, Castle Face is known for its unique blend of genres and commitment to delivering exceptional music to fans worldwide.

Since its inception, Castle Face has been at the forefront of the independent music scene, consistently releasing groundbreaking albums that push boundaries and defy expectations. From garage rock to psychedelic pop, our diverse catalog offers something for every discerning listener.

With a reputation for nurturing emerging talent and supporting established acts alike, Castle Face remains dedicated to providing a platform for artists to express their creativity freely. Our passion for music drives us to curate a collection that reflects the spirit of innovation and authenticity that defines our label.

Nolan Potter is putting us home recording freaks to shame. We had a year of global pandemic to lay out our grand ideas and the sum total of most artists “quar-riffs” wouldn’t push the constraints of a normal band practice (gosh, remember those?). Nolan Potter, in the meantime, has quietly painted us a beatific masterpiece that veers from the whimsical to the wigged out, deftly weaving an untamed tapestry of sound all the while archly commenting on the present musician’s predicament - and he did it alone. No drum machine clattering in the background amidst tape hiss and 4 track grime here - this is a fully realized, insanely well played, full on rock record that might even one-up his first LP for us, last years excellent Nightmare Forever. The guys’ got more chops than a beauticians’ college across a wide array of instruments - no small feat, and easily overlooked when you leave the lyric sheet and credits on the dining room table. That the songs travel far, wide, up, down, backwards, and gamely spill out over the 5 minute mark with exceptionally loose interludes and diversions is just another marvel in this carnival of aural delights. It’s a gem of a record and it’s out on Castle Face.
