About

Situated in the heart of the Bucktown neighborhood in Chicago, Kyle and Tilynn Steiner, an enthusiastic husband/wife team, wanted to start something sensational.

Bringing together their love of the Chicago music scene’s distinct sounds and the desire to elevate bands to their highest potential, they created Oakley Avenue Records.

Kyle and Tilynn wanted to create not only a record label, but a community of like-minded individuals that share a love for creating art that will make the world a little bit brighter.

With each band they partner with, they seek to create a space where artists feel comfortable, cared for, and believed in. They achieve this by leading with transparency and offering creative freedom.

With Oakley Avenue Records handling distribution and promotion, it allows the artists to be just that, artists. Oakley Avenue Records believes that musicians should be able to focus on making music and touring for excited fans rather than the day-to-day operations of promotion and distribution.
