About brand
4AD
4AD is a
British record label owned by Beggars Group. It was founded in London under
the name "Axis" (after the Hendrix album) by Ivo Watts-Russell and
Peter Kent in 1980 as an imprint of Beggars Banquet Records. The name was
changed to 4AD after the release of the label's first four singles. Later
that year, Watts-Russell and Kent purchased the label from Beggars Banquet to
become an independent record label, and Kent sold his share to Watts-Russell
a year later.
The label gained prominence in the 1980s for releasing albums from
alternative rock, post-punk, gothic rock, and dream pop artists, such as
Bauhaus, Cocteau Twins, Modern English, Dead Can Dance, Clan of Xymox,
Pixies, Throwing Muses, and Watts-Russell's own musical project This Mortal
Coil. In 1987, the label scored an international hit with the dance music
single "Pump Up the Volume" by the one-off project M|A|R|R|S. 4AD
continued to have success in the 1990s and 2000s, with releases from The
Breeders, Lush, Belly, Red House Painters, Camera Obscura, TV on the Radio,
St. Vincent, and Bon Iver. As of January 2022, the label's current roster
includes acts such as Dry Cleaning, The National, Daughter, Deerhunter, Big
Thief, Aldous Harding, U.S. Girls, Erika de Casier, and Future
Islands.[4]
