Tooth & Nail Records is a record label[1] founded by Brandon Ebel in California in November 1993. The label later moved to Seattle where it is today.

History

Brandon Ebel and Michael Knott conceived the label as a joint venture, before Knott backed out.[2][3] Prior to forming Tooth & Nail, Ebel worked for Frontline Records.[4]

Tooth & Nail's first album released was Wish for Eden's Pet the Fish.[5] In 2002, the label bought out Takehold Records.[6][7]

In 2013, Brandon Ebel sold the Tooth & Nail music catalog to Capitol Christian Music Group (formerly EMI Christian Music Group) and bought back the 50% stake in Tooth & Nail formerly owned by EMI, making it an independent record label. It retained rights to all future releases with a new distributor, RED Distribution.[8]

Overview

Eight Tooth & Nail-affiliated albums have been RIAA-certified as gold for sales of 500,000 or more copies. The label had one of its greatest successes when Underoath's Define the Great Line debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 in 2006.[9]

NPR described the label as having "altered the course of the Christian rock industry by launching and legitimizing the careers of MxPx, The O.C. Supertones and Underoath."[10]
