~oddities for the sonically damned~

who are we?

Ruinhaus Records is an independent record label and oddities vendor dedicated to sharing a love of music and art with anyone willing to listen.

We operate as a vendor booth at markets and shows, offering artist merchandise alongside a curated collection of oddities and curiosities. Our artists keep 100% of their merchandise earnings, as well as full rights and licensing to their music and creative works.

A portion of oddity sales directly supports our artists by funding promotion, creative projects, and new releases. Ruinhaus Records promotes artist music, shows, and merchandise- nothing more and nothing less. There’s no catch...just a sincere effort to support local music and help independent artists share their art with the world.

Meet @paige_wissinger, one of the artists on our Ruinhaus team! Taking Inspiration from gothic novels, dark films, and her own dreamscapes, Paige is a multimedia artist who loves all things that go bump in the night. She’s been creating art for as long as she can remember, but started taking illustrating seriously in 2019. We are thrilled to have her as a visual media artist showcasing stunning prints of her original drawings. Fun fact- Paige helped create the Ruinhaus logo!

@graceoddo is a 25 year old emotionally charged pop artist whose music hits you right where it hurts...and keeps you coming back for more! Born and raised in Bellevue, Ohio, Grace grew up in a small town where her big feelings had nowhere to go but into songwriting. Drawing inspiration from early Taylor Swift, Phoebe Bridgers, and Hayley Williams, Grace channels her Midwestern roots into raw, confessional songwriting that blends irresistible pop melodies with a sharp, angsty edge. Her debut album, My Quiet Heartbreak, where vulnerability meets attitude, is proof that Grace is a strong story-teller. Grace is here to let her listeners know: you are not alone! She's giving a voice to everyone who's ever felt too much, loved too hard, or cried too long. And lord knows Grace has cried.

“Somewhere, Afterlife” explores themes of grief, change, and isolation. It is shot from the lens of a new ghost exploring the world from the other side of the veil, who is seeing but not looking, and who isn’t part of the landscape in the physical sense. Each photo is a piece of their journey as they come to terms with their new world, a postcard addressed from somewhere in the beyond with a simple, common sentiment: “wish you were here”.

And that is exactly what she aims to do.
