Background information

Tigerspring is an independent record label and management agency, based in Copenhagen and London. It spearheads the larger Tigerspring Inc, which includes Tigerspring booking, Tigerspring publishing and a recently launched sister-label EasyTiger.^[1]

Tigerspring^[2] was founded in the summer of 2006 by Christian Møller and Søren Winding, who are both students of Music Management at the Royal Danish Music Conservatorium.

Christian, a former member of early 00's Danish indie darlings Moon Gringo and Søren, a former DJ and employee of EMI Music Denmark both shared a love of quality music and launched Tigerspring, on the idea of creating a new kind of record label for the “post-crisis” music business.

Early on, they signed Choir Of Young Believers – at the time, a solo-project of Danish/Greek singer/guitarist Jannis Noya Makrigiannis - whose debut album “This Is For The White In Your Eyes” received amazing reviews ^[3] and was named hope of the year at the Critics Choice Award^[4]

Most artists on the label fall into the categories of alternative rock, indie and melodic rock, but all reflect Christian and Søren's personal taste
