For listeners who follow Yep Roc Records because the label has consistently backed artists who write their own rules, this page collects 193 titles across vinyl, CDs, and cassettes from one of independent music's most reliable imprints.

Dallas Good's Were the Watchtowers rounds out the CD selection.
Why buy from Relix
Relix has covered the Grateful Dead, Phish, and the wider jam and roots world since 1974, which means the records stocked here are chosen by people who actually read the liner notes. The store also carries the Relix Sessions series, live recordings produced by Relix and pressed to vinyl on the Relix Vinyl label. When a Yep Roc title fits the audience this magazine has always written for, it ends up here. The catalog reflects that standard rather than a broader wholesale sweep.
Every title in this collection is new and sealed. Pre-order titles display a street date on the product page and ship when the label releases them. Vinyl ships in protective packaging designed for LPs.
If Yep Roc's roster pulls you toward particular corners of the catalog, the Americana, Folk and Country Vinyl Records collection and the Folk Vinyl and CDs collection let you narrow by genre, while CDs Straight from the Vault gathers disc formats across labels in one place.
