Scratchie Records was an independent record label founded in 1995 by James Iha and D'arcy Wretzky (original bassist of The Smashing Pumpkins), Adam Schlesinger (Fountains of Wayne, Ivy), Kerry Brown (Catherine) and Jeremy Freeman.[1][2]
Initially, Scratchie was based in Chicago and had distribution through Mercury Records,[3] but a year of legal wrangling ended the pact after Universal merged with Mercury's parent company, Polygram. Scratchie then signed a deal with New Line and moved to New York City.
