 B & J Records is quickly earning a solid reputation in the Soul Blues Musicb Industry. B & J Records was founded by the Late "Bill Coday" as President and C.E.O., and "Joe Hudson" as Vice-President in Memphis, TN in May of 2005. The label opened with its first release being "Jump Start" by Label's President "Bill Coday". The next artist signed to the label was "Ms. Karen Wolfe". "Ms. Wolfe" was discovered by the 1st Lady of the Company "Mrs. Anna Coday" while "Ms. Wolfe" was singing background behind the Queen of the Blues � "Denise LaSalle".
