About

Greywood Records is a Berlin-based independent record label and music publisher for modern folk music and singer songwriters.

Founder Heiko Wessels started his music industry career in 2005 working as promotion manager for several German indie record labels. After that, he got hired by Golden Gate Management representing major label artists and music producers working for companies like Universal, Sony, City Slang or Motor (2006-2007). Besides, Heiko founded his own artist booking and PR agency under the name of mightytunes (2006-2013) representing acts like Paul Dempsey (AU, Capitol) or Cocoon (FR, Universal). In 2008, he started a music publishing cooperation with big German independent publisher Budde Music. When launching a record label in 2013, Greywood Records was born, a company to put the different fields of work under one umbrella. 

In 2024, a new imprint saw the light of the day: Retonsel, home to different shades of ambient, instrumental and lofi music. Since its first release in January 2024, a growing number of producers/artists constantly release through this new powerhouse.
