LoveCat Music

LoveCat Music is an American independent record company and music publisher, founded in 1999 with a catalog of over 10,000 songs from a varied roster of songwriter-artists. It originally focused on indie rock — notably Evan Olson and Los Straitjackets. Since then the label has grown and diversified into releasing Latin (Cesar Mora, Latin Soul Syndicate, the Latin Moderns compilation series), ethnic lounge (Angel Tears (duo), Zino & Tommy), jazz (Bill Anschell, Four Piece Suit) and eclectic records such as Lotus Lounge. One of LoveCat's most notable artists is Reagan Youth, the legendary 1980s New York punk band, whose songs have been covered by The Beastie Boys and D Generation.
