Saddle Creek

Saddle Creek is an indie rock style label based in Omaha, Nebraska. Established in 1993 by Mike Mogis and Justin Oberst, the label was originally called Lumberjack Records. However, Mogis soon passed on his role to Conor Oberst, who took over as the head of the company. With a focus on independent music and a passion for supporting emerging artists, Saddle Creek has become a prominent name in the music industry.
Over the years, Saddle Creek has been home to various talented musicians and bands, including Bright Eyes, Cursive, and The Faint. Known for their unique sound and authentic approach to music-making, these artists have helped shape the label's identity.
With its headquarters in Omaha, Saddle Creek continues to be at the forefront of indie rock music. Their dedication to fostering creativity and providing a platform for up-and-coming talent makes them a respected authority in the industry.

Back In Stock

Spirit of the Beehive release their fourth album and Saddle Creek debut, Entertainment, Death. The album signals new chapters for the band on multiple fronts, being the first to feature their new three-piece lineup, as well as the first to be entirely self-recorded and produced.

An abundance of time wasn’t the only dierence. Recording remotely oered the band an incentive to experiment with new possibilities for their sound, resulting in an album that is unlike any Spirit of the Beehive has released before. Once the band nished recording and mixing the album digitally, they mastered it to tape, lending the collection a textured, dimensional quality. Though Entertainment, Death doesn’t cohere in a single, unifying theme, the band samples old obscure commercials throughout, many of which guided the process of writing a song instead of serving as an appendage.
