After 15 albums with Blue Note Records, saxophonist Greg Osby left to start his own label. The label specializes in releasing self-produced works from artists from many different backgrounds and parts of the world. In 2008, its first album, 9 Levels, was released by Osby himself.

Inner Circle Music's roster includes Melissa Aldana, João Barradas, Ran Blake, Juan Garcia-Herreros, Petros Klampanis, Logan Richardson, Kavita Shah, Yuhan Su, Gabriel Vicéns, and James Weidman.

Since its founding, Inner Circle Music has released over 100 recordings. In 2016, All About Jazz noted that "Inner Circle Music is a prominent example of a label based on the ideas of creativity and community spirit." That same year, Jazz In Europe wrote, "This active jazz label represents Osby's eagerness to keep jazz alive by pushing forward new young talent in the hope of facilitating their professional careers across the globe."
