DeSoto Records
DeSoto Records is an American record label based in Washington, D.C.
History
DeSoto was founded in 1989 and is run by husband and wife team Bill Barbot and Kim Coletta (both formerly of the band Jawbox). It was first founded by members of the band Edsel to release their first single: "My Manacles." Jawbox was next to use the name DeSoto for their first EP. DeSoto has released over 40 records, 7" singles, CDs, and LP vinyl records. It is distributed by Fontana Distribution. The label decided in 2002 to stop releasing new music and focus instead on its catalog. They partnered with Dischord Records to re-release some of Jawbox's records.
