Gneiss Sounds started with a simple concept – to provide more out of reach titles to a certain audience and reestablish a community where we can talk about the music we love, share cool experiences, make new friends and support local bands (for real). We’re a safe space, and if you have visited us, you know what I mean. We took it a step further by offering extra maintenance/vinyl repair services, not typically offered at other records stores. Now, we are essentially a one stop for most things, including some of the best coffee/specialty drinks in the Houston area. 

We don’t carry a lot of generic titles, but it’s always something we can likely order for you. Just because it’s not in our tiny store, doesn’t mean we don’t care for it. Please remember that. I will gladly refer you to another place that may have that in stock item or to perform repairs I just can’t do. I do it all time, because most of them are small local businesses like us. 
 
We’ve tested our limits a bit as a co-owed (married couple) shop. Being small business owners is not easy. No employees or anything, just us.  It’s necessary to provide all this fire, plus we love it. Stepping back and remembering the purpose makes a difference every day.
 
We are extremely grateful for the support we have received from family, friends and new friends. We see you. Now, this is the part you were probably waiting for.
 
No, we are not closing but there is another adventure.
 
This is Rite Field Records. A real Texas independent label, focusing on artists that deserve some recognition and that we believe in. It will be small, but that’s the best part. It means more attention on the artist and all the opportunity to put out exclusive, high-quality releases and merchandise to support them. There are more ideas in the works but that’s what we have right now. We’ve partnered with long time compadre/Owner at End on End Prints to make this effort the best that it can be. The name, Rite Field, originated from the idea that we think all our artists are performing solid ritual acts in their field. 
 
More surprises to come.
 
Sincerely,
 
Gneiss Sounds and End On End Prints owners
