David Gresham Records

1972 was the year that David Gresham cut the ribbon and opened its doors to what is now the longest running independent record company in South Africa, The David Gresham Record Company. The company’s first producer was Robert John ‘Mutt’ Lange, who later went on to work with Clive Calder of Zomba Records in the US.

The David Gresham Entertainment Group now consists of a full promotional, marketing and sales team with offices in Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town. The Johannesburg head office hosts two full recording studios.

The company also has a separate DVD movie division, and a separate import division, including the largest chill out/lounge series, 'Hotel Costes' and 'Buddha Bar'. Gresham Records has become synonymous with rock, yet continues to satisfy every musical taste from dance to pop to MOR to classical and more recently Afro-pop, traditional and kwaito.
