The essentials

Quick Facts About Runner Up Records

Primary roster (late 2000s/early 2010s) included Lighten Up, Hightide Hotel, Bearings, Spraynard, Dave House, Higher Giant; releases are documented on Bandcamp as Runner Up Records (Philadelphia, PA).
Complete discography (as listed by Runner Up Records Bandcamp) spans 2008–2011, with the latest release in 2011: Where Fun Goes to Die by Lighten Up (2011).
Notable singles on the label include Bearings’ 7" era (2009) with Constrained, First Day Gone, Images, Ten of Five, and Spraynard’s Cut and Paste (2010) with tracks like Stickin' Together Is What Good Waffles Do; no major chart positions are publicly reported.
Social media/official presence centers on Bandcamp (the label’s discography) and the official site runneruprecords.com (including an English/Spanish roster page and contact).
There is historical ambiguity: a separate Sacramento-based Runner Up Records existed in the 2000s, but the Bandcamp roster referenced here relates to the Philadelphia label; both share the same name but are distinct entities.
