About
Posh Boy was an independent record label based in Los Angeles that operated during the early 1980s, primarily releasing punk and new wave recordings on vinyl. The label's catalog reflects the vibrant Southern California punk scene of the era, with a focus on local and emerging artists. Among its documented releases are Gesundheit! (1982), Rodney On The ROQ Vol. III (1982), and I'll Take My Chances / How Come? (1983), all issued on LP format. The label's output demonstrates an interest in both original compositions and compilations that captured the energy of Los Angeles's underground music community. Posh Boy operated during a formative period for independent record labels, when vinyl remained the dominant format for serious music releases. While modest in output, the label contributed to the documentation and promotion of the West Coast punk movement during the early 1980s.
