Controversy

[edit]

In November 2019, Stevie Knipe of Adult Mom accused Tiny Engines of a breach of contract due to the delayed payment of $8,000 in royalties.[5] Knipe claimed that Tiny Engines sent no royalty payments between 2015 and May 2018 to the band.[6] Other artists such as Mannequin Pussy and Christian Holden claimed to have experienced similar circumstances.[5] The co-founder of the record label, Chuck Daley, admitted to the delay of payments in an interview with Billboard.[5]
