About Hi-Speed Soul Records

Hi-Speed Soul is owned and operated by Eric Howarth and Heather Johnson.  Having been in the music industry in one form or another for over 10+ years, either running a record label or their two record stores (M-Theory Music), Eric & Heather have a dedication and love for the music they release.  Hi-Speed Soul was initially started from a beer fueled conversation after a Nada Surf show at the Casbah with Nada bassist Daniel Lorca.  We chatted about releasing an out of print EP and then that idea sat for a while.  A couple years later, the new label was born and the name Hi-Speed Soul was chosen as the perfect fit!  Nada Surf was the catalyst and our favorite artists like Adam Franklin from the amazing band Swervedriver have been signed since.  Along with picture disc vinyl from Sirhan Sirhan and an upcoming CD and vinyl release from Lady Dottie and the Diamonds.  Stay tuned for more releases ahead!

If you're a hard working (that means already touring) band that would like to submit an album/demo for consideration on the label roster, send a press kit package to Hi-Speed Soul 915 W Washington Street San Diego, CA 92103.
