LoveCat Music is an American independent record company and music publisher, founded in 1999 with a catalog of over 10,000 songs.[1] It originally focused on indie rock — notably Evan Olson and Chris Von Sneidern. Since then the label has grown and diversified into releasing Latin (Cesar Mora, Latin Soul Syndicate, the Latin Moderns compilation series), ethnic lounge (Angel Tears, Zino & Tommy), jazz (Bill Anschell, Four Piece Suit) and eclectic records such as Lotus Lounge.[2] Two of LoveCat's best-known artists are Reagan Youth and Los Straitjackets.

LoveCat Music is a publisher of Latin music, with writer-artists from Colombia, Mexico, Spain and Ecuador. Its roster includes such artists as Latin Soul Syndicate (USA), Los Niños de Sara (France), Cesar Mora (Colombia), La Palabra (Cuba-USA) and Damn (Sweden).

It also large catalogs of Russian and French music. Notable Russian writer-artists include Masha Shkonik (folk), Olga Alex (dance), Masha Pruss (rock) and the acclaimed Flying Balalaika Brothers (rock). Its French music catalog features songs by 1960s ye-ye chanteuse Jacqueline Taïeb. Current French artists include the rap duo La Caution and Parisian rockabilly singer Jesse Garon (musician).

In the R&B and hiphop fields, LoveCat Music works with Dojo Records, a New York-based management company. The roster includes writer-artists I.O.D.
