Saddle Creek, founded by Bright Eyes' Conor Oberst and his brother Justin Oberst, continues to be the flagship label of a style of music that is beginning to be called the Omaha Sound, characterized by acoustic and/or indie music with a slight country twang. A "brother label," of sorts, to Saddle Creek is Team Love, started by Conor Oberst in 2004.
