Recordings from exceptional artists Committed through a considered approach to quality, respect and individuality.

We proudly represent recordings from forward-thinkers including Sophie Hutchings, Caspian, Deafcult, and more. From day one, the focus has been on providing forward-thinking artists with a collaborative partner sharing their vision, helping them build equity and retain ownership of their work. Working with only a small group of artists allows us to focus on the finer details, affording the artist freedom and room to develop — on their own terms.

When the group chat’s dry and your brain feels like dial-up internet, the only answer is… go outside 🌳. A close second being new tunes 🎶. "Keep Your Eyes Open" playlist just levelled up with fresh drops to soundtrack your daydreams, detours, and accidental scroll marathons. Culture > chores.

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT 💡 CASPIAN Hailing from Massachusetts, USA, setting a benchmark for their fierce intelligence musically and humility as a band. Hobbledehoy proudly released the albums "Waking Season" and "Dust & Disquiet". What a joy it was working with these lovely humans a decade or so ago. (Coming back to Australia in December!) I still think about that time on the final night of tour in that crowded, abrasive, Adelaide club... when Phil insisted on teaching me how to eat a beer.

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT 💡 FOURTEEN NIGHTS AT SEA . RIP. Sometimes things just happen. And sometimes they just can’t. Such was the fate of Melbourne 6 piece Fourteen Nights At Sea, graciously bowing out with their swan songs Artefacts and Black Maps. Their first recordings with vocalist/guitarist Amy Muir. Seeing these songs being performed live outside, opening for Beach House at the Adelaide Festival and knowing it was the last time I would watch a FNAS was terribly bittersweet. Alongside them since 2012, the band had now hit yet another a new level. It was mesmerising. Spooky, noisey, slow and abrasive. They would often carefully curate shows and champion young and underrepresented artists. Photo is of Lara shredding, which also features on the b-side of their final 12". I love you all 🖤

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT 💡 SOPHIE HUTCHINGS (Sydney, AUS). Hobble has been working together with Sophie since 2017, with 3 albums and a lot of laughs over the years. Sophie's spellbinding new 9th album "Become The Sky" has just come out last month on . Their love affair with the piano began in a rather concealed manner. As a child she would secret herself away with only the family piano for company – quietly developing her ruminative, dreamy style which would later become her trademark. An ARIA and multi-award winning performer, often playing alongside contemporaries

In a world of endless tasks, trends, and to-dos, the new vibe is “Hang In There” - but with a twist. It’s less about powering through and more about embracing 🙃 . Our playlist "Keep Your Eyes Open" is there to give you those fresh cuts you didn't know you were craving. Hang in there, productivity can wait. Because sometimes, it feels good to focus on culture (or counter-culture) and the amazing people that make up these spaces.

Coming this Sunday, HOB 083 "short snarl - Self Noise". Following the slowly unfurling 2024 release Gossamer Songs (.adl / Hobbledehoy), their sophomore EP Self Noise features 5 new tracks with an expanded live band sound and newfound confidence in their songwriting. There are so many elements here, one I'd like to speak to is Thea's incredible grasp on lyrical writing and delivery. Reminding me of the impossibly googleable artist "S", former Carissa's Weird leader Jenn Champion. Giving it an unequal balance of intimate and quiet riot grrrl. You can watch the video to "Year End Poem" right now, full EP drop on Sunday. .lucia
