1965 Records is a currently dormant London-based subsidiary of SonyBMG. Formed in May 2006, the label was founded by James Endeacott (formerly of Rough Trade) and primarily features indie rock/pop bands. It is best known for signing Dundee-based four-piece The View. The company initially released five separate limited edition seven-inch


vinyl singles by Jack Afro, Billie the Vision & the Dancers, Pizzy Yelliot, The Book of Lists and Jahcoozi. The first distributed album, Cannery Hours by The Occasion, arrived in July 2006. This was followed by the release of The View’s Wasted Little DJs in August 2006, which gave the label its first charting single - reaching No.15 in the UK Singles Chart. Success with The View continued when the band’s third single Same Jeans, peaked at No.3 in January 2007 and one week later, the band gave the label its first No.1 album with their debut Hats Off To The Buskers. On 11 November 2006, NME released a covermount CD (left) with the magazine, titled NME Presents: Independent Thinking. It contained a number of unreleased tracks by bands signed to the label, such as The Law, The Draytones and Ripchord. Throughout 16–27 May 2007, 1965 took part in


a joint tour with fellow record label Deltasonic named The Sonic65 Tour.


Did you know? 1965 Records takes its name from the year of Endeacott’s birth, as well as his favourite year for music.
