Olive Grove Records

Olive Grove Records is an independent record label based in Glasgow, Scotland. It was established in 2010 by Halina Rifai and Lloyd Meredith, two Glasgow-based music bloggers.

Operations continue on a part-time basis under the direction of Meredith.

History
Frustrated that the local music they liked wasn't getting released, Halina Rifai and Lloyd Meredith of the Podcart and Peenko music blogs co-founded the label in 2010. Their debut release was "Battleships & Kettle Chips" by Randolph's Leap in November 2010. The label's name comes from the song "An Olive Grove Facing The Sea" by the band Snow Patrol.

Currently, the label is operated on a part-time basis under the direction of Lloyd Meredith.

The Archipelago EPs
In July 2018, it was announced that the label had been awarded a Creative Scotland Open Project Funding grant to support the release of a series of EPs by up-and-coming Scottish-based artists with little or no studio experience. Launched in 2019, the 6-part series featured releases from Chrissy Barnacle, Pocket Knife, Moonsoup, Circle Meets Dot, Lux Canyon, and Jared Celosse.
