Lara St. John - Ancalagon Records

Ancalagon Records

In 2000, St. John founded the artist-owned record company, Ancalagon LLC. She decided to create the company as a result of her personal dissatisfaction with the marketing and production approach of larger recording companies.

By owning her own record company, St. John was free to make artistic choices that were no longer driven by commercial considerations. The move also allowed her to become an early adopter of distribution through the Internet.

St. John named the record company after her pet iguana, Ancalagon.

Famous quotes containing the word records:

    Although crowds gathered once if she but showed her face,
    And even old men’s eyes grew dim, this hand alone,
    Like some last courtier at a gypsy camping-place
    Babbling of fallen majesty, records what’s gone.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
