About
Our Story: Established in 2003, Burning Building Recordings (BBR) was founded by a one-man DIY machine (Brian Jackson) as a way to release and promote records from the bands and artists he was working closely with. A similarly minded individual (Chris Travis) joined the team in 2004 and together they quickly began building what BBR represents today - a means to release and support independent music from bands and artists, both deserving of attention and those that BBR truly believes in and supports.
Brian Jackson: Having worked with bands for 10+ years, Brian brings the guerrilla smarts and consistent creativity to BBR. A former promoter/manager for Endless Vertigo Music and director of promotions for now defunct all ages venues, The Paradox & The Brick:House/AWOL, Brian handles the website, graphics, A&R, and day to day Seattle operations for the label. Brian is also a proud father and husband, plays bass in a local band, and frequents Blue C Sushi.
Chris Travis: Formerly a local DJ on 107.7 The End where he hosted "The Young & The Restless", Chris became an integral part of the Seattle music scene, frequenting shows, supporting bands, and evangelizing for local music. Having also worked for Bumbershoot and other labels (BMG, EMI), Chris brings the unrelenting passion and business sense to BBR. He handles the numbers, A&R, PR, and project management for BBR releases. In his spare time, he lived in England, loves muffins, and listens to way too many BBR records.
Current BBR Artists: The Lonely Forest, Daniel G Harmann & the Trouble Starts, The Oregon Donor, To The Waves, Speaker Speaker, City Light, Matthew Shaw, Airport Cathedral
