About RB

Random Bastards is our creative collective, founded in 2002 here in UÅ, Mästerbotten, Dirty North, Sápmi, Sweden.

It all began in the early 2000s with teenage friends making films that mixed skateboarding and snowboarding, recording music, throwing release parties and printing matching t-shirts. Today RB still does pretty much the same thing with records, merch, videos and events - all independent.

Our name came from doing lots of random stuff at once, mixed with the attitude of UÅ’s local hardcore punk scene at the time. That's also why our bird logo is double-headed.

Our music label has now dropped over 250 projects. RB-related releases have received Grammis and P3 Guld awards and multi-platinum certifications, including work by Fricky, Academics and Cleo. Trainspotters have toured Europe and the US, and also popped up in Asia. Fridlyst, Axel Ruby and others take the music in different directions. Keep your eyes open for new projects.

Mästerbotten Block Party was held in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026 together with our friends Hoopdiggas.

Every spring we celebrate Storspovsmånad to welcome our favorite animal back to the north.
