April 20, 2026 – Today marks six years since the formation of Endnote Records! In that first year I released music and made art for close friends to celebrate their music and vision. At the end of 2020 my partner and I were forced to move out of our home where I printed shirts and operated the label out of. In 2021 I would take over the booking and management of a music venue in Akron called Musica. There, I booked events under Endnote Presents and contributed to a great community of music fans and the bands they supported. During that time, I was focused on the events and trying to make something special - in person - after the COVID era restrictions were lifted. I’m pretty proud of what I put into that place and the events that I put on with Endnote. I was so busy putting on shows that I didn’t get back to physical releases and art for bands I believed in. But I didn’t go anywhere.
Now, it is April 20, 2026 and Endnote Records and all of my other endeavors under the Endnote HQ umbrella, is celebrating our six year birthday! With that being said, Endnote Records is back. I’d like to welcome both House Crimes and Ritual Bronze to the Endnote family. Between the two bands, we’ll be releasing some tapes, an Endnote produced music video, and another zine! More info on all of that to come. For now, thanks for reading. Endnote Records – A Cleveland Original Since 2020!
*Due to health issues, Counterfit will no longer be touring. This show is no longer happening. Sad, but the health of our friends is far more important. *
I haven’t booked a show in a number of months, but I just couldn’t pass up the chance to bring the early 2000’s San Diego post-hardcore/emo group COUNTERFIT to Mahall’s on their Midwest reunion tour around the POST Festival in July. They’ll be here on July 26 and they’ll be joined by Eighty-Sixed, Kid and the debut of Ritual Bronze. It’s sure to be a great show and I hope you’ll consider coming out. Tickets are available at Mahalls20lanes.com!
I’ve been trying to do a Stiletto XMas show for a while and we’re finally making it happen! Baby Bear too! The First Days of Spring and Eighty-Sixed Kid round out this one. What a show. Tickets are on sale at the @musicagigs website.
Throwing a really great show November 1 in Akron at Musica with My Mouth is the Speaker, Heart & Lung, Quitr, and Growing Stone. If you’re not there, you’re somewhere else!
Endnote is back April 23 at Mahall’s. No new music to showcase (yet), and I never put out a vinyl record (yet???) but I’ll have plenty of hand printed tee shirts, goods, and selections from my personal collection alongside the mega hit books and CDs that I helped my friends release in 2020. Hope to see you there!
It’s been a while. As the world gets back to some state of semi normal, I feel like it’s time to put myself back into this. Web store with what’s left of old merch is back online and I’m working on some new stuff. One step at a time. Happy to see you again!
Getting together with some of my friends for a northeast Ohio label pop up at @foundrylakewood this Friday! Gonna be slinging books from @rustedhearts_oh , CDs and tees from Eighty-Sixed Kid (@mymouthisthedaniel ) alongside label tees and the Dogs! and Cats! tees.
I had wanted to make a few new designs on some different items, but being in the middle of moving Endnote HQ to Akron, I can’t get it done. Everything will be on sale!
Come eat some of that amazing Foundry food, support some local buddies, and say hello and goodbye to your guy.
Be smart and courteous. Mask up and keep your distance as much as possible. We’re nine months in; you oughta know how to act by now.
