About:

"Nice Guy began in 1999 with a little money I saved up by working at a fruit & vegetable market. At the time it was just a way for me to put out CDs by my own band, The Scrubs. I also put on a lot of shows in the Cincinnati area, so it was handy to have a name to tie it all together. I never dreamed it would amount to what it has. I put out a few DIY CDs for my friends' bands, but the catalyst that made this into a real business was when I agreed to put out the Bottom Line EP in 2000. I realized then that if a band works really hard and a label works really hard too, a lot of CDs can be sold. I also realized it was a whole lot of fun!

Since then, I have put out a couple of comps and some CDs by some other hard working, talented bands who all vary in style as much as my musical taste varies. I even had the privelege of putting out a CD for pop punk legends The Travoltas! Our reach has expanded to four continents and we are growing rapidly.

Our mission is to expose the punk music-loving world to awesome, unique artists and to have fun while doing so!"
