Permanent records is not overly concerned with making money (which is turning out to be very convenient.) nor are we too preoccupied with fame and glory (although a little gig nookie now and then isn't a bad thing). As a matter of fact anyone in the Permanent Records Stable of Stars who is found guilty of RSTB (Rock Star Type Behavior) is assigned the chore of cleaning out the Permanent Records Company Fridge, and trust me that is humbling. What we are concerned with at PR is music. Mostly folk music of the antifolk variety, but also whatever tickles us. The Concept is that this Label lies somewhere between a benevolent NEA-friendly Divine Sovernienty and a warm fuzzy dirty Hippie Commune.

Some artists on PR have legitimate record deals with the label - simpler, but similar to that what you'd find at your neighborhood cold heartless indie label (except way less zero's and the decimal points lean toward the artist). Other artists are folks who's record we just loved and offered to add to the Cannon. PR makes No Money from these fuckers, and gives them some free press and covers a few costs when it can. But here, (and if you've stopped reading by now, start again, cause this is the cool/important part) lies the motherscratchingcrux of the whole schmegeggy - REPUTATION. Since PR is not in the record business to make money, we can have absoloute artistic integrity.
I love EVERY SINGLE RECORD that comes out on PR, if I didn't respect the band or the songwriter, I simply wouldn't have them on the label. It's that simple. And the way that's supposed to translate is: if you are a Butch Ross Fan then you should buy Adam's Records; and if you love Adam's Music, then you should take a chance on Todd Young's record or on Pete Chambers' record, because they all bear the PR seal of approval.
That's why there's other people on the label. I'm trying to get more people to hear great songs. If its not working out, then fuck me, it seemed like a good idea at the time.
