Spongebath Records

Spongebath Records was an independent record label based in Murfreesboro, Tennessee during the mid-nineties. Spongebath was often viewed as a centre of Murfreesboro/Nashville's (and the Southeast's) music scene with an artist roster of well-known bands, singers, and songwriters. From 1997-1999, Spongebath attracted media attention for arranging co-label deals with DreamWorks Records (for Self's 1999 album Breakfast with Girls) and with Elektra Records (for the Katies self-titled 1999 album.) Bands/artists on Spongebath at one time or another included: Self, Fluid Ounces, the Katies, The Features, Count Bass D, Fleshpaint, The C60's, The New System, The Roaries, Gumption, Call Florence Pow, Ruby Amanfu, and Knodel. The label was founded by Matt Mahaffey, Seth Timbs and Rick Williams
