Wing Records

Wing Records

Wing Records was a record label subsidiary of Mercury Records that enjoyed its greatest success during the 50s. In the late 80's, just before its final fade, the label enjoyed a brief success with then new R&B singers Vanessa Williams, Female R&B trio Lace, R&B band Tony, Toni, Tone, brother-sister duo Channel 2, and Brian McKnight.

Brian McKnight was singed to Wing in 1989, but the album he recorded (which was his 1992 self-titled debut) was not released on the label. Instead, it was issued on Mercury.

In 1996, Wing was closed out, and all of its remaining artists (Vanessa Williams & Tony Toni Tone) were moved to Mercury.
