Nine Winds is an American jazz record label that was founded in 1977 by Vinny Golia.[1][2][3]
Golia is a self-taught musician who plays over fifty woodwind instruments, in addition to brass.[2] In the early 1970s, he believed it was impossible for musicians who lived outside New York City to get contracts with record labels. He founded Nine Winds to produce his own albums and that of others who played free jazz, avant-garde jazz, and other forms of avant-garde music that were difficult to sell. He issued several of his own albums, then the debut album by guitarist Nels Cline. The roster grew to include unconventional music by Alex Cline, Jeff Gauthier, and Wayne Peet.
