Tricycle Records is a San Francisco based independent record label founded in 2006 by Julie Schuchard and Don Joslin (The Union Trade).〔http://www.tricycle-records.com/about/〕 The label launched with the release of The Union Trade's first EP, ''Now the Swell,'' in 2007. Since the launch, Tricycle records has grown into a multi-genre label catering to DIY artists in the Bay Area music community. The label operates with the philosophy that the artist should retain control and rights to the music, while Tricycle helps them in other areas. In an interview with Performer Magazine in 2007, Schuchard explained the role Tricycle Records plays with its artists: :"We provide our bands with services they would normally have to pay for — such as web design, graphic design, packaging, photography, distribution, PR and booking. We also add them to our catalog and sell their record through our website. We don’t involve ourselves in producing the music — rather, we allow the bands focus on crafting songs to fulfill their artistic vision, and then we pick up the record once it is mastered. We also see ourselves as a stepping stone for smaller bands seeking exposure while they are working towards larger labels."〔http://www.tricycle-records.com/about/interviews/〕 In January 2011, Tricycle Records released the ''Friends of Tricycle Records Compilation Vol. 1,'' which featured music by Ash Reiter, Kill Moi, Fake Your Own Death, and many others.
