It's good (excellent!) to know that people are enjoying the sound. We have quite a few releases coming out in the coming spring months - hopefully people who enjoyed prior SONS singles will enjoy 2010's even more. Thanks again. Cheers!

Check these bands out now. I defy you not to beleive me my son.

Listen through their back catalogue was a great way to spend my Sunday afternoon. So many gems from such a small label. ...and to think I can't remember the last time I went to Stoke You’re absolutely right about people needing to check out the rest of the bands roster on SONS.

Stabling acts like the ones you cherry picked here I have no doubt in my mind SONS is flying to success. Its no wonder they've been dubbed Factory records of the naughties. I'd recommend any one reading this to check out This is Seb Clarke off the label. A phenomenal clash of punk rock and northern soul. Something to be seen! Come on the Stoke!
