Eardrum Valley Records is a mid-level Canadian indie label that has been helping bands as a stepping stone from independent status to being supported for release through promotional recognition since 2003.[1] Founded in Kelowna, BC, they have taken a grassroots approach to organic artist development since inception. This approach expanded their roster of artists' exposure through direct connections, online marketing and touring. Their support comes in many different levels and often as a whole package with professional engineers, producers and A&R reps carrying the development of radio ready recordings from inception to release. Notable members include producer/engineers: Caleb Hyde (often credited as Kaylub Burke), Peter Falk, Max Prophet, Josh Pym, Dillon Whitfield + A&R Reps: Steven Bakra, Grant Cole, Grace Clark, Tina Wallace, Raul Garcia.

The Canadian indie label has helped over 500 indie bands release demos, singles, EPs and albums (LPs) on varying levels with a handful of notable projects garnishing national/international success as they went on to receive continued exposure with higher tier labels/distribution houses. Most notable of these acts are listed below.

2019 saw the headquarters of Eardrum Valley Records move from Vancouver, BC to Toronto, ON right before the COVID-19 Pandemic began. During the global 2020/2021 pandemic Eardrum Valley took the downtime to establish a new approach in helping independent bands remotely record and engineer their own songs under guidance of experienced audio experts. Once recorded the team professionally mixed and released over a dozen acts and provided promotional resources for streaming release to help generate profit for both band and label upon release. This inspired a new approach to their in-person recording as well, helping independent bands support themselves comfortably through self release while establishing a baseline of streaming/merch income as they continue to generate content for streaming release.

In 2022 Eardrum Valley teamed up with "The Recording Factory" [30] to establish a studio with high end analog gear, large live room, iso booth, edit room and an exceptionally tuned control room in the west end of Toronto, ON. The team took on a new approach to funding artists and granting free practice space/recording sessions [31] to produce songs before recording them in order to establish streaming revenue as a way to recoup production costs for all involved [1]. Together, they opened the doors of the "The Recording Factory" to a post pandemic metropolis, helping the area's artists re-establish a new method to creating content while sustaining themselves in a recovering digital world through partnership, funding and streaming promotion. The label continues to put just as much passion behind supporting independent bands as it always has, though now offering opportunities to local Ontario acts while continuing to remotely produce artists from afar as they extend the benefits of the studio and experience to select acts.
