Run For Cover Records is an independent record label out of Boston which was started by Jeff Casazza in 2004. Although primarily oriented towards punk and hardcore, current label’s roster is fairly diverse and some of their artists include:

Koji – A “songwriter/activist” from Harrisburg, PA whose approach to music was described as “Chisel Meets Jeff Buckley”. His new EP “Some Small Way” was mixed by TW Walsh (Sufjan Stevens, Rocky Volotato).

Tigers Jaw – Scranton, PA band who received comparisons to Weezer, Get Up Kids And Promise Ring.

Castevet – Chicago band whose music was described as a blend of post-rock a-la American Football / Appleseed Cast and more traditional bands like Small Brown Bike.

Transit – A melodic punk band out of Boston.

Death Is Not Glamorous – 5-piece melodic hardcore band out of Oslo, Norway.

Hostage Calm – Rock/punk/hardcore band out of Connecticut. They debuted with a demo in 2007 and more recently released their second (self-titled) LP via RFCR.

You can stream label’s’ releases via Bandcamp and/or visit their official page.
