Rocketown Records
Rocketown Records is an independent record label which was started in 1996 by Michael W. Smith. The dream was to create a new, independent Christian record label that wouldn't follow the rules of the modern music business. In the fall of 1995, Michael W. Smith met with Don Donahue, who was, at the time, Smith's A&R director at Reunion Records, to discuss the creation of this new label. They hoped to develop artists, and not focus on musical fads.
In 1996, Word Records bought a minority share of the company.[1]
