Sims Records

Profile

Independent US label started by [a3578638]. Active in the 1950s-1960s, then again in the 1990s-2000s. Sims Records began recording local country musicians in Los Angeles, California in the early 1950s. In the early 1960s, Sims relocated to Nashville, Tennessee and began to add Black Gospel and R&B musicians to his roster. By late 1968 Sims was running short of money so the label was mothballed until its reactivation in the 1990s.
