History
editBurnt Toast Vinyl was founded by Scott Hatch,[1] a Drexel University student who had initially been involved with concert promotion at the school.[2] The label has released full albums from several prominent Philadelphia indie musicians, as well as releasing or re-releasing material on vinyl from artists, including those on the Tooth & Nail roster. Among its reissues are the debut album from Scaterd Few, re-released by Burnt Toast in 2015.[3]
Several of Burnt Toast's post rock and experimental groups attracted notice from magazines such as Dusted[4] and Prefix.[5] Among the label's best-known releases are those by Denison Witmer,[6][7][8] Unwed Sailor,[9][10][11][12] and Saxon Shore.[13][14]
