604 Records (stylized as VIOIV Records) is the production company of Nickelback singer Chad Kroeger[1] and attorney Jonathan Simkin (Founder of Simkin Artist Management), founded in 2002.[1] Their records are distributed in Canada by Universal Music Group. 604 refers to one of the area codes of the Lower Mainland (which includes the City of Surrey, British Columbia, where the company's offices are located).
Simkin launched the companion label Light Organ Records in 2010 to release music by a number of indie rock bands who he felt did not fit with 604's image.[2]
In 2014, 604 Records relocated to a new larger office and opened 604 Studios, a multimedia production facility featuring two recording studios, soundstage and in-house production team. 604 Records has since used 604 Studios for a number of livestream broadcast events.
