Fearless Records is an alternative rock-oriented record label that has been signing artists since 1994[1]. Fearless is based in Westminster, California and are best known for their early pop-punk moments captured in the Fearless Flush Sampler and Punk Bites releases, as well as additional releases by bands such as Bigwig and Dynamite Boy, and later Sugarcult, Plain White T's, The Aquabats, and post-hardcore releases by At the Drive-In[2]. However, the label has experimented with different styles in recent years. Acts like A Static Lullaby, Rock Kills Kid, Mayday Parade, Alesana and The Maine have showcased post-hardcore and alternative bands that have emerged in recent years. Fearless Records' releases are currently distributed nationwide by RED Distribution and East West Records.[3]
