Million Memory Project
Our Imprints
Different stories. Different audiences. One mission.
Million Memory Project publishes books that celebrate creative work, preserve community memory, and create lasting records for future generations. Our imprints provide distinct paths for artists, communities, and cultural stewards to transform stories into books.
Artist Stories
Sound Archive Books
Books for musicians, bands, and music communities.
Community Stories
Through Our Eyes

Stories Take Many Forms

Each imprint serves a different audience, but all three share the same belief: stories deserve to be gathered, shaped into books, and carried forward as legacy.
