Honeymoon Music is a small, independent label based in the Fishtown neighborhood of Philadelphia, PA. It was founded in 2004 by Norman Fetter and Jeff Carpineta, who also founded the band Niagara Falls. The initial focus of the label was to document the musical community blossoming around Philadelphia, and more specifically, the three houses which became known as "The Compound". This compound has been home to Espers, Golden Ball, Fursaxa, Sharron Kraus, Niagara Falls, Eric Carbonara, Stainless Japan, Heather Leigh Murray, Ex Reverie, and Andrew Giles.

Honeymoon Music's first release was "Barrel Vault", by Niagara Falls, and has since released a variety of cdrs, cds, and vinyl. Honeymoon Music has been called a sister label to Marriage Records of Portland, Oregon, although the relationship is unclear.
