First established by the wonderful acoustic folk group Ossian in 1978 as a vehicle for both the band and solo projects from within. The label was taken over by Lismor Recordings in 1990.

The original 13 titles were expanded over the years to 74 before ceasing new productions and moving the complete catalogue into the new digital world.

The label was always pioneering. It's even likely that Ossian were one of the first artists to have their own 'indie' label and not sign to a record company.

Under Lismor control the roster moved from 'Celtic Acoustic' and at times got near to full blown 'folk-rock' with bands like Wolfstone, Rock Salt & Nails and Tartan Amoebas and also into 'techno-folk' with Paul Mounsey and his Nahoo trilogy.
