A bit about us...

Quite simply, our passion is family, friends, music and animals...(and wine!), in no particular order! Company Co-Director Nick has been a singer/songwriter ever since he was 14 when he was inspired by Blur’s Parklife. Before that, he didn’t show any interest in music and wasn’t aware of the influence it would have on his life or the journey it would take him on. He was talented enough to play various gigs throughout the UK in the coming years and recorded an EP in Nashville, which earned recommendation from the great Whispering Bob himself. Fast forward many years, Nick met Grace (Company Co-Director) in 2018 and together, with the help of Graces’ sister Amy, they are embarking on a new journey with Grinning Dog Records to bring talented musicians into the forefront and get beautiful music heard and appreciated! Grinning Dog Records was thoroughly inspired by their love of their 4 Jack Russells, well 3 and a Jackapoo, with gorgeous Niles being the idea behind the logo!
