About us
Hopeless Records has thrived as a beloved home for independent music for nearly 30 years.The label has been a haven for accomplished legacy acts like Taking Back Sunday, Yellowcard, and New Found Glory, and has also paved the way for a new generation of artists like Neck Deep and The Wonder Years. One of the label’s greatest success stories, All Time Low, joined the roster early on in their career, and the collaboration has since racked up a number of Gold and Platinum records. Hopeless has proudly navigated the changing tides of alternative music to continue reaching new generations of music fans over the years. The label has emerged as a leading voice in developing young talent, proudly fostering Gen-Z voices like Waterparks, Scene Queen, NOAHFINNCE, and DE'WAYNE early on in their careers. As a result, Hopeless has emerged as one of the greatest independent success stories and an institution in alternative music. Above all else, Hopeless Records strives to make a positive impact through music. Its' proudest achievement is the label’s charity and advocacy work, which has long been an integral aspect of the business. Hopeless’ charity arm, Sub City, has raised over $3 million for more than 50 causes since its inception in 1999.
