Sunspot Records

Record label

Sunspot Records was a small independent record label in Arlington, Virginia, that existed in the early nineties. The Sunspot roster included bands primarily from the east coast of the U.S. Several of these bands such as Avail, Shades Apart, 1.6 Band, and Fly (pre Trans-Am) went on to have successful music careers. The label was founded, owned, and operated by Bryan Wassom until it closed in 1994.
