About Me

HYENA Records was created in 2003 under the direction of record producer, Joel Dorn. The concept for the label was to build it with great music by one of a kind artists in a variety of genres, while combining both new recordings with a mix of stellar vault recordings. To date, HYENA has released music by the likes of The Bridge, Bethany & Rufus, Dale Watson, Grayson Capps , IsWhat?!, Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey, James Blood Ulmer , John Ellis, Lafayette Gilchrist, Marco Benevento , Mike Dillon’s Go-Go Jungle, Mushroom with Eddie Gale, Olav Larsen & The Alabama Rodeo Stars, Seth Walker, Skerik’s Syncopated Taint Septet. It has quickly become one of the most fascinating indie labels in the U.S.
