breakup records is an independent label based in Dawson City, Yukon—a place that wakes up each spring with the dramatic departure of river ice, marking the end of a long winter and the start of something new.
In music, “breakup” can mean a lot of things: distortion, disruption, departure. In Dawson City, “breakup” indicates a literal release. Our label is here to support artists with theirs, to send their work down the proverbial river—and we mean that in the best way possible.
Rooted in community with a sense of adventure, we help good music from the North move outward—season after season.
