Stomp Off is an American jazz record company and label founded in 1980 by Bob Erdos in York, Pennsylvania. The label's first release was Feelin' Devilish by Waldo's Gutbucket Serenaders.
It was described in 1986 as concentrating on "jazz in the styles of the 1920s or earlier, as played by contemporary musicians." Up to then, the recordings were released on LP only. The roster soon covered musicians from the US, Europe, and Japan.
Erdos died on March 25, 2017. By that time, the label had released more than 430 albums, 80 of which were available by digital download.
