Since SxSW 2006 Yep Roc has released a total of 28 albums from some of music's most influential icons (Paul Weller, Nick Lowe, Billy Bragg, Dave Alvin, Robyn Hitchcock) and many of rock's newest envelope-pushers (The Apples in stereo, American Princes, Cities). Yep Roc is also looking to the future with projects from amazing new artists like Rock Plaza Central and Heloise, the latter being the newest export from Yep Roc's joint venture with Elijah Wood's Simian Records. In light of this year of record growth and change, Yep Roc is blowin' it out for SxSW 2007!
