PopLlama Records

PopLlama Records is an independent record label founded by record producer Conrad Uno in Seattle, Washington, in 1984.[1] After making several of his own demos in his basement studio, Uno would produce The Young Fresh Fellows' debut album The Fabulous Sounds of the Pacific Northwest at the band's request.[1][2] When the band decided to release their own albums, Uno founded PopLlama Records to help,[3] releasing their debut album as well as the follow-up Topsy Turvy. Uno would continue to produce, usually for friends, and release albums through PopLlama throughout the 1980s.[1]
