Lendel
Records
was created in 2003 with its first CD release "Randy Waller" on March 30, 2004.
The custom label was designed to exclusively serve the clients of Lendel Agency
which has been in business since September l971.
Lendel Agency, owned
by Len Holsclaw, was the sole management and booking agency for "The Country Gentlemen"
from l971 through l998.
During this time, Lendel Agency handled many
artists who have become stars on their own: Bill Emerson, Jerry Douglas, Ricky
Skaggs, Doyle Lawson, Randall Hylton and many others who are members of great
bluegrass bands throughout the genre.
Randy
Waller , son of legendary Charlie Waller, was as a member of "The Country
Gentlemen" the last two years before Charlie Passed away and is presently carrying
on the great music and tradition of the Country Gentlemen that Charlie started
with 53 years ago in 1957. Randy is an outstanding song writer, musician and singer.
Lendel Records was formed to bring this young artists work to the attention of
music lovers everywhere.

been a great success with Randy getting three SPBGMA nominations for 2005 including
Song of the Year with "Daddy's Old Guitar" and Entertainer
