Mr. Lady Records (or Mr. Lady Records and Video) was a San Francisco-based lesbian-feminist independent record label and video art distributor.[1] Artists on the label included Le Tigre[2] and The Butchies.[3] OutSmart magazine noted that Mr. Lady was "queercore's strongest label."[4]

The label was founded in 1996 in Durham, North Carolina by musician Kaia Wilson and artist/UNC photography professor Tammy Rae Carland,[5] aiming to redress what they saw as a lack of feminist record labels at the time.[6] As well as a range of recording artists, the label was also heavily involved in other events that promoted feminist thinking and music, such as the Michigan Womyn's Music Festival – which led to some controversy in 1999 – and various art showcases.[7][8] Mr. Lady closed down in June 2004.[9]
