History[edit]
ESI Records was founded by Brian Joyce in 2020, and is distributed by The Orchard (company).[3]
The label's first artist to join the ranks was Joyce's own moniker; indie pop act, Val Astaire.[4] Releasing his debut album Fever Dreams shortly later that Summer. [5][6]
ESI's first foray into R&B came with signing Nikki Hayes (singer). A solo artist hailing from Chicago, Illinois praised for her "powerhouse vocals".[7]
In early 2021, ESI added Boston based indie pop band Shallow Pools to the roster, and released a single on January 15, 2021 titled "ice water" with a music video released the same day.[8]
Later that Spring, ESI added Noir & B artist Sophie Coran, hailing from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.[9][10]Her first single with the label,S P A C E, garnered attention from UPROXX, praising her for "seamlessly melding jazz and R&B into something truly fun and unique."[11]
