Michael Knott and Blonde Vinyl Records (with Christopher Rumbaugh)

In the 90’s, Christopher Rumbaugh worked for Blonde Vinyl with Michael Knott as point man, blazing the trail, the label nurtured a creative community around Knott’s artistic vision. Blonde Vinyl became an extension of this ethos: raw, art-driven, honest, and filled with spiritual wrestling.

The label served as a creative collective for artists who wanted to explore faith, doubt, darkness, and beauty without censorship. Listen in as Spun, Todd & Chris share some incredible recollections of an alternative music era made even more bittersweet since Michael’s passing in 2024.
