History
In 2007, Phil Waldorf founded Dead Oceans with Chris Swanson.[2] Swanson suggested the name Dead Oceans, which came from the lyrics of Bob Dylan's "A Hard Rain's a-Gonna Fall" (1963).[3][4] Chris' brother Ben Swanson, Darius Van Arman, and Jonathan Cargill of Secretly Canadian and Jagjaguwar also helped to found the label.[5][6] The label is part of Secretly Group.[7]
In 2017, the label released shoegaze band Slowdive's first album in 22 years.[8][9][10]
In 2018, Dead Oceans was listed as #7 on Paste magazine's top-10 record labels of 2018.[11]
