Music that Deserves Careful Listening
Archival albums and new recordings on vinyl, with artist-led content.
Uncover
our story
Near Miss Records began with a simple belief: a lot of great music was never fully heard the way it deserves — even if it came close. We release vinyl records with care, focusing on albums from the past that still resonate and new recordings we believe in right now. Every release is pressed intentionally, sold directly to listeners, and supported by artist-led content that provides context and insight into the work. Near Miss Records exists to create space for music that connected deeply, even when it didn’t connect broadly — and for listeners who value careful listening.
