Hickory Records is a United States record label founded by Acuff-Rose Music in 1954 which operated the label up to 1979. Present owner Sony/ATV Music Publishing revived the label in 2007. Originally based in Nashville, functioning as an independent label throughout its history, it has had several distributors. From its inception in 1955 to 1973, Hickory was distributed independently. MGM Records then distributed the label in 1973, then ABC Records distributed it four years later. MCA Records inherited the ABC distribution deal when MCA bought ABC Records in 1979. The relationship between Acuff-Rose/Hickory and MCA turned sour shortly afterwards, so the Hickory label was discontinued and its catalog pulled when the distribution deal expired later in 1979. The entire Hickory output is now owned by Sony/ATV Music Publishing which owns the Acuff-Rose catalogue and revived the Hickory label in 2007 with an album by Elliott Yamin. The output of the revived Hickory Records is distributed by Sony Music's RED Distribution unit.
