Hi there!
Hot Drop Records is an independent music label founded in 2009 by a collective of tea-loving artists spread throughout Europe and Australia. We bid you welcome....
We've got all sorts for you here: band releases, information about gigs and workshops, arty visuals and - for those of you needing original music for a circus show or film sound track - a composition service for stage and screen productions.
New Hot Drop Release!
Grab a copy of Harry Bird and the Rubber Wellies' second album, "The Bones on Black", just out!
Recorded initially live over ten days in the front room of a big old house in Lincoln, England, it was whisked off to do the rounds a bit and pick up some handy collaborations from friends in Dublin, Galway, London, Bilbao and Barcelona.
Available on CD and digital download in many formats (mp3, FLAC,WAV, etc) for those of you who like that kind of thing...

Message from Wellydom:
"The Irish tour was great craic - thanks to everyone who came to the gigs and bought the new album! We're taking a wee break for Easter but will be back on the road in Scotland and England on 12th April. Watch out for guest appearances from Jamie Bird, Borja Dolara, Will Rutter and, who knows, maybe more! We are very pleased to announce that Paddy will be re-joining us for the last few weeks in England as he sadly wasn't able to make any of the gigs in Ireland. Take care, and hopefully see you soon!"
