Redwood Records

After touring with Jane Fonda and Tom Hayden in their “Indochina Peace Campaign” in 1971 and 1972, Holly Near began writing songs and performing in the Los Angeles area.  Unable to land a record company deal, she released her debut album in 1973, Hang in There on her own label, Redwood Records (which she started a few years before Olivia Records came along).  She often toured with Olivia Records artists and performed on some of their albums, including The Changer and the Changed; but her early albums were released on Redwood.
