A Letter From Our President

Green Line Records isn’t just a student-run record label. Our students and resources provide a self-induced atmosphere for passion and hard work to collide and take form in creativity, collaboration, and education. Green Line Records isn’t just a club. We’re a community. A family.

While tumultuous, we have grown so very much and I have much promise that we will continue to thrive. I am also excited to share that we will be moving to a brand new studio space next year. I have so much love for everyone in GLR and everything I’ve personally received from the community. I feel ecstatic as I reflect upon all that our members, the rest of E-board, and I have accomplished. With the end of the 2022-23 academic year as well as my presidency, I am proud to share with you all the fruits of our labor and love.

Our A&R department signed a variety of diverse Bostonbased artists this year including Kammeron Frost, Clifford the Band, and Main Era, whose singles are out right now available on streaming platforms, and DPF and Aidy, whose projects to look out for this summer.

Green Line Records also collaborated with Tastemakers Magazine to present “Battle of the Bands” to the Northeastern community, allowing NU artists to battle it out for a chance to work on a single with GLR and be featured in a spread in an issue of TMM, Arden Lloyd emerging as the winner. Keep an eye out for her release as well!

Our Recording team exponentially grew with over a dozen students climbing their way up to Assistant Engineer and Lead Engineer positions for recording projects. This was also the first year our Licensing department was up and fully functioning, and they successfully facilitated five syncs between independent musicians and media makers.

Our Events department put up 11 shows in our campus music venue AfterHOURS this past year, featuring artists from a wide variety of genres, from Ella Jane to midwxst to Lilly to binki. This also included two shows featuring local bands booked by members of our Events teams. For the first time in any on-campus music organization, members not only had the opportunity to be involved in day-ofshow hospitality for these two shows but also the entire booking and negotiation process from the beginning to the end.

Our previous Marketing, Media, and Design departments underwent a huge makeover, combining all three into one Creative Services department. This has helped with overall organization and efficiency and helped create more opportunities for our budding creatives. And that being said, we are proud to present the second installment of our zine “The End of the Line” which captures the work of our artists, departments, and members through the eyes of our new Creative Services team. Soak it all in and come back for even more next year :-)

With lots of love, Ro
