History
editCurran and Ogbonnaya met as part of the same DIY and underground scene, as both were in bands that rehearsed in the same building. They met officially during a show at the now defunct Logan Square venue called Township and soon after they started to discuss forming a record label together. The label's releases are often genre-less and experimental. [2]
Although Sooper primarily focuses on music releases, they often speak up for the Chicago community, as well as for national social justice causes.[3]
