Hello folks,

Happy Friday to you all. Strange days eh! Things are a bit quiet on the release front but there's still fun to be had. Here's how...

The Galileo 7 will be appearing on Shindig! Magazine's Lockdown Festival tomorrow. An amazing line-up for this, should be great fun!

With the recent digital release of Heavenly's classic Operation Heavenly album, the band now have new official social media links. See below for more info.

Today is Captain Sensible's birthday! We'll be releasing a single and a full-length LP by the Sensible Gray Cells later in the year. More details on that further down.

And lastly, friend of the label Sexton Ming has been doing some streamed online shows - if you missed them don't worry, they're available to watch again!

New 7” single from our latest signings!

We've started the pre-sale for the new 7” single by Danish/Brazilian garage sensations The Courettes!

They're going fast so don't leave it too long.

For more on the band and their mighty fine new disc read on below!

All being well the release date is still May 22nd, but obviously this could change given the current situation but seems to be fine.

They were actually the last band we saw before the lockdown, in Paris on the 12th March, a great show.

Stay safe, stay in, and have a fun weekend!
