Blue Élan Records

Blue Élan Records is an independent record label based in Los Angeles, California. It was founded by entertainment and insurance lawyer Kirk Pasich, and his son, musician Connor Pasich, in 2014. Stylistically, the label's releases cover Alternative and Indie Rock, Americana, Folk, Blues, Hip Hop, and others. Their artist roster also ranges in age and industry history.

History
Kirk founded the label with his son, Connor, to release Cindy Alexander's sixth album, Curve. After contacting artist Cindy Alexander, whom Kirk had met during the production of StarTomorrow, about her recent cancer treatment, she invited him to visit her studio where she was recording her next album. Shortly after their meeting, the label was formed, and Curve released via Blue Élan Records in 2014.

Over the next four years, Blue Élan added Rita Coolidge, Janiva Magness, Jesse Dayton, Rod Melancon, and others to the roster, including Gerry Beckley and Rusty Young. The label gained further attention in 2017 when Janiva Magness earned a Best Contemporary Blues Album Grammy nomination for her Blue Élan release, Love Wins Again.

The label has partnered with the Alliance for Children's Rights on multiple occasions, a legal fund to help children in poverty access free services to legal aid.
