Roadrunner & Artist News

ROADRUNNER FANS SEND THE UK OFFICE AWESOME MESSAGES OF SUPPORT + SEE WHAT OUR ROADRUNNER COLLEAGUES ARE UP TO...

Posted on June 18, 2012

As you may have heard, the Roadrunner UK office shut their doors on Friday th 15th of June. It is not the end for Roadrunner UK as two of us have moved onto Warners to attempt to carry on the legacy that is Roadrunner UK - and you'll be pleased to hear that some familiar faces will still be working with the bands you all love so much. A few of us are still sorting out our plans but some of us have got set up immediately. See below for a little promo for our fellow Roadrunner UK colleagues who will still be involved with us/our bands in other ways:

Designsixtyfour - Andy Pritchard
Website
Facebook

AC Promotions - Austin Collins
Website
Twitter

Cosa Nostra PR - Michelle Kerr & Kirsten Sprinks
Website
Facebook
Twitter

Watch this space to see what the rest of us get up to!

The support from you guys since getting the news has been overwhelming. We haven't received an official PR to release about what has happened but we were as shocked as you all were. When you are doing as well as we were and beating targets, you don't expect to be closed...but the decision has been made and we are where we are. Although it was unexpected we plan on striving to do the best we can for our bands, as always. The website and social media will continue as normal so please do keep checking back for news and updates.

We have been copying and pasting messages from our Facebook Page and Twitter account recently and you can see a selection of those messages below (there are way too many to include!?). You can also read all the Twitter messages by clicking here and you can find messages on our Facebook Page by clicking here. Feel free to share the love and leave us a comment via Twitter, Facebook or in the comment box below too.

Cynic, Pestilence, Malevolent Creation. I remember the days when Roadrunner/Roadracer was an absolute seal of approval. Up until around '98/'99 you could guarantee that the record would be incredible if it was released on Roadrunner. Nickleback/Coal Chamber/Junkie XL etc was the start of the decline. Who can forget that Roadrunner Records licensed Technohead's 'I Wanna Be A Hippy' - true fact.

Sergej Feller
Alter Bridge - AB III You guys were truly awesome. Thanks for all the support for the now dwindling market of rock music!

Tijmen Lamers
