Omnivore Recordings is an independent record label based in Los Angeles, USA. Founded in 2010 by music industry veterans Cheryl Pawelski, Greg Allen, Dutch Cramblitt, and Brad Rosenberger, the label specializes in preserving legacies and music created by historical, heritage, and catalog artists.

With a mission to honor the rich musical history of artists from various genres, Omnivore Recordings has acquired the catalogs of renowned musicians such as *The Buck Owens Estate*, *Big Star*, and *Game Theory* in 2017. This acquisition further solidifies their commitment to preserving important musical works that may have otherwise been forgotten or lost.

With a dedication to quality sound restoration and comprehensive liner notes, they provide listeners with an immersive experience into the artist's world.

Collection of 16 previously unissued tracks. Includes demos and live tracks bookending their U.S. breakthrough album 'Teenage Symphonies To God'. Packaging includes photos and liner notes from Velvet Crush's Ric Menck. When Rhode Island's Velvet Crush appeared on the scene in the early 1990s, they were obviously a force to be reckoned with. Signing with England's Creation Records (Oasis, My Bloody Valentine, Teenage Fanclub), they released their debut LP in 1991. But, it was 1994's 'Teenage Symphonies To God' (the title being a play on Brian Wilson's description for what would become SMiLE) that put them on the map. Co-produced by the legendary Mitch Easter, it opened America's eyes to what those over the pond were so wild about. But, what was the genesis of that record? Find out with 'Pre-Teen Symphonies', a collection of 16 previously unissued tracks from Velvet Crush. 8 demos (including one for the classic single 'Hold Me Up') and 8 tracks recorded live in 1994 at Cabaret Metro in Chicago. As the band proved the past was the future by taking elements from classic '60s melodies, '70s power pop, and '80s reinvention, 'Pre-Teen Symphonies' is a unique look into the development of a classic, and the live power that drove it. Find your path with 'Pre-Teen Symphonies'.
