About

Label History
Mt. Fuji is a record label based in Seattle, WA that was formed in 2005 by Michael Jaworski. In February of that year, Mt. Fuji would release it’s first record, the debut full-length by the Omaha-based band Little Brazil entitled You and Me. Later that year, Mt. Fuji would release an E.P. and full-length record by Jaworski’s band, The Cops. As time has passed, the label has slowly expanded adding releases by Slender Means, Lillydale, The Whore Moans, Point Juncture WA, Black Whales, The Maldives, and most recently Virgin Islands. The label has more releases planned for 2010 and beyond, including an upcoming split single between Spiral Stairs (Pavement, Preston School of Industry) and Long Winters.
