Decor

Decor is a London based record label, management company and European booking agency run by Chris Metzler. Started in the year 1998 out of the Setanta Records office before going it’s own way in late 2001.

Richmond Fontaine was an American four-piece rock and alternative country band, based in Portland, Oregon. They were active between 1994 and 2016 and recorded eleven studio albums, four live albums and two EPs.

Their music drew inspiration from a variety of genres including folk, country, punk, and rock. Known for their heartfelt lyrics and raw storytelling, *Richmond Fontaine* created a unique sound that resonated with fans around the world.

Influenced by artists such as *Willard Grant Conspiracy*, *Richard Buckner*, and *Giant Sand*, Richmond Fontaine's music captured the essence of Americana while exploring themes of love, loss, and the struggles of everyday life. Their soulful melodies combined with introspective lyrics created a captivating listening experience.

'The Fitzgerald', Richmond Fontaine's sixth studio recording, is a quiet departure from the raucous, visceral send-ups and live shows that got the band compared to the likes of the Replacements and Whiskeytown. Written when singer / songwriter, Willy Vlautin was holed up for two weeks in a Fitzgerald Casino hotel room in Reno, Nevada, the album is a stark collection of songs about the people who live in the shadows of a casino town. If you think Springsteen's 'Nebraska' as written by a young Tom Waits on a acoustic guitar, you'll be close. LP - 180 Gram Vinyl in Gatefold Sleeve with Download. first time on Vinyl.
