Wind-up Records was a label from New York. It was founded in 1997 when Alan and Diana Meltzer bought Grass Records. This label's works are distributed in the world by Sony BMG Music Entertainment, except of Canada, where the company is Wind-up Entertainment Canada, Inc., and the distributor is Warner Music Canada. Wind-up is the biggest independent label in the world. The company's slogan is "Developing Career Artists". Some of the artists whose catalogue is under license with Wind-up are Evanescence, Seether, Finger Eleven and Creed. Evanescence left Wind-up in 2014 and since then are independent band.

On 13th January, 2009, Sony Music Entertainment issues a press release telling it has incorporated Wind-Up Records. In September 2009, the world distribution is given to the EMI, excluding North America.

In October 2013, the Bicycle Music Company bought the rights to Wind-Up's back catalogue. These artists will be distributed by Concord Music Group, which later merged with Bicycle. In May 2015, Concord bought the rest of the Wind-Up label.

In 2016, Concord retired Wind-Up as a frontline label, and transferred most of Wind-Up's artists to other labels. Wind-Up's reissues are released under Craft Recordings, Concord's reissue label.

Evanescence's Contract

Wind-Up Records is Evanescence's former label. It signed Evanescence in 2001 under a three album contract after the head of A&R Diana Meltzer heard their demos.[1][2] All of Evanescence's releases from 2003 to 2011 - including Fallen, The Open Door and Evanescence - were released under this label. Wind-Up distributed many of the singles (except of the Imaginary and Weight of the World singles, both published by Sony in radio-promotion purpose).

Wind-Up Records also released the soundtracks featuring Evanescence: Daredevil: The Album (track #9 - Bring Me To Life and track #17 - My Immortal, 2003) and Elektra: The Album (track #8 - Breathe No More, 2005).

The single Broken (2004) with Seether and Amy Lee was released under this label, in The Punisher: The Album.

The label forced the band to add a male rapper on their first single, Bring Me to Life,[3] though they originally wanted them to hold auditions to permanently add a male singer in the band[4][5] and feature him on eight out of eleven songs on Fallen.[6] Amy refused it and they were put on hold until they agreed to add a male vocalist on only one song, i.e. the first single.[6]

Amy's father, John Lee, revealed that Wind-Up originally wanted the band to scrap The Open Door and rewrite it. However, he encouraged her to fight for the album and she eventually won the label over, thus making them green-light it.[7]

In March 2013, Wind-up reissued Fallen on purple vinyl for its 10th anniversary.[8]

In October 2013, it was announced that Bicycle/Concord Music Group acquired Wind-Up's back catalogue, including Evanescence's master catalog.[9]

On January 3, 2014, it was announced that Amy Lee had filed a lawsuit against former record label Wind-up Records, seeking $1.5 million in unpaid royalties owed to the band.[10] The lawsuit was settled and Amy had to sign a non-disclosure agreement that she could not say anything negative, "so that's the only way in any sense that I'm still bound".[11] In March 2014, via her Twitter account, Amy announced that she and Evanescence had been released from their record label contract and were independent artists.[12]

Amy said she able to get the rights to the material originally recorded during the Lillywhite sessions for Evanescence's self-titled third album that was scrapped by Wind-Up Records in early 2010.[13][14] She lovingly referred to this album as "broken record" and added she plans to finish and release some of these songs in the future.[15]

Some songs on the self-titled album were inspired by Lee's frustration with the label, including Sick and A New Way to Bleed.
