Xtra Mile

Xtra Mile is a record label based in London, UK. Founded by Charlie Caplowe in 2003, the label has become known for its diverse roster of talented artists and performers.

With a focus on supporting independent music, Xtra Mile has cultivated a reputation for releasing high-quality albums across various genres including rock, folk, punk, and indie. The label prides itself on providing a platform for emerging artists to showcase their unique sound and connect with fans around the world.

From *Frank Turner* to *Against Me!*, Xtra Mile has worked with some of the most influential acts in the industry. Their commitment to nurturing talent and fostering creativity has earned them recognition as one of the leading independent labels in the UK music scene.

May 2017 marks Chris T-T's 20th anniversary making music. The same week in 1997 that Tony Blair came to power, Chris moved to London and before the end of May he'd played his first solo gigs (Chris that is, not Tony) and self-released his debut 7" single. Shortly after, Chris home recorded and self-released his debut album Beatverse (years before this became commonplace) on a MiniDisc four-track with no computer. Beatverse was barely distributed but won Chris label interest and Radio 1 plays from Steve Lamacq, who championed the song 'Shit From All Angles' on the Evening Session. By Christmas, Chris was guesting live on the show. Over two decades since then, Chris T-T has always walked his own path, with visionary psych pop, startling humour and unflinching, sometimes discomforting radicalism. He's released 10 solo albums to consistent praise and played over 2,300 shows worldwide. Ten years ago he joined the Xtra Mile Recordings family, signing in 2007 on the suggestion of fast-rising young singer and fan Frank Turner. He has released four albums with Xtra Mile; Capital (2008), Love Is Not Rescue (2010), The Bear (2013) and last year's 9 Green Songs.
