Above: Aryia films music video for new song “2009” at the Bridge Nine Headquarters.
We were contacted by local music producer/engineer Jay Maas (Jay Maas Recording, Defeater) about the music video for a new artist he is managing, Aryia, and we were happy to open our doors! Aryia is a California-based artist known for blending music genres but with a prominent pop-punk sound. Check out the music video for Aryia's new song "2009" now!

If you like hardcore music you've heard of Bridge Nine, and if you like Boston sports you've heard of Sully's, but did you know the sports brand was originally started solely to fund punk albums? When Chris Wrenn was just 19 years old, he started a record label in his dorm room. Then, in the spring of 2000, he walked to Fenway Park from Boston's Mission Hill with friends from his bands and a backpack full of "Yankees Suck" bumper stickers. The plan? To make the much needed money to release a record with his roommates in the band American Nightmare. What happened next took the hardcore music scene of the early 2000's worldwide and cemented Bridge Nine Records as one of its most recognized ambassadors. Read about it courtesy of No Echo HERE!

Ray Harkins has posted his latest episode of 100 Words Or Less: The Podcast, which features B9's own Chris Wrenn! Stream and download that here. Here's the description from Ray:
"Episode 164 - Bridge Nine is an institution. Now, 20 years in the label is synonymous with hardcore, punk and above all, quality. The owner of the label, Chris Wrenn, and I spoke over Skype one afternoon about many things including dedication to independent music, guerrilla marketing in Boston to get the labels name out there and finally, hustle. It's a very inspiring listen for anyone wanting to get their creative juices flowing."
