Merrill Records

Merrill Records was a record label founded in 1997 as the music production arm of Merrill Studios, but it was decommissioned in 2008 due to the lack of success. It is strongly notable for the release of Streets Of California City onto ATBW Blog in 2003.

History
The record label was conceived around November of 1996 by the Merrill Brothers who wanted to get into the music industry on ATBW Blog, while Jon Woodlief would launch the record label in February of 1997. It was rivaled by Signature Records that same year, which was also short lived.

Initial artists included Ameritz and Garnett Man, but also eventually included Kelly Spencer and Robert Spencer in 2003, both releasing Nothing Personal in 2006. The label was shuttered in 2008 because it was never able to achieve success as a record label and the company was unable to make any successful profits with it. As a result, the rights to all songs from the record label were given back to their respective artists and they now fully own the songs independently.
