About Me

My Dad came into the world in April 2004 in the music(and football) capital of England - Manchester.
The label is the musical home of Jim Noir.
It starts and ends with great tunes.
If you have an unfailing belief in your music and your songwriting talents then we want to hear from you.
We are not after amazing quality recordings.
You don't need to be in a band, or live in Manchester.
We just want boys and girls who want it BAAAADDD!!!
