Luminelle Recordings is an independent record label founded in 2017 by Gorilla vs. Bear's Chris Cantalini in partnership with Fat Possum / House Arrest Distribution.

History

Chris Cantalini, founder of Texas-based music blog and Sirius XM show Gorilla vs. Bear, founded Luminelle with Fat Possum in 2017.[1]

After running Gorilla vs. Bear for 13 years, Cantalini was approached by Fat Possum's Peter Wiley. Recognizing Cantalini's knack for discovering talent already akin to an A&R role, Wiley proposed the idea of founding his own label.[2][3]

Luminelle's first signed artist was Montreal-based Helena Deland, releasing her single "There Are A Thousand."[4] Together, they released numerous EPs and Deland's debut album, Someone New. Since then, Luminelle has signed Magdalena Bay, Hana Vu, MUNYA, and Enumclaw.[5]
