Sheep Chase Records is an independent label and management located in the woods outside of Oslo, Norway. The label was founded in 2011 by Terje Ekrene Vik, connecting the dots from various former projects on the Norwegian music scene - and launching what had been in the making for years.
​
Sheep Chase started out with releasing punk trio Dark Times, and has evolved into an uncompromising deliverer of alternative sounds. There are no set boundaries, and the label will work hard to constantly evolve.
​
We also offer design/graphic services for artists/bands, as well as administrative services.
​
In 2025 we launched our jazz imprint, Sauajazz.
