Fat Possum Records

Fat Possum Records is a record label operating out of Oxford, Mississippi. Founded by Matthew Johnson in 1992, the label initially specialised in discovering blues players from the North Mississippi region, many of whom (such as R. L. Burnside and Junior Kimbrough) had never recorded before, and recording them in interesting and innovative new ways. As the label has developed, it has begun to broaden its base of artists and sign a range of younger bands such as the Heartless Bastards and The Black Keys.
