History

Halina Rifai and Lloyd Meredith of the Podcart and Peenko music blogs co-founded the label in 2010. The label's name comes from the song "An Olive Grove Facing The Sea" by the band Snow Patrol. Their debut release was "Battleships & Kettle Chips" by Randolph's Leap in November 2010.

Currently, the label is operated on a part-time basis under the direction of Lloyd Meredith.
