Introducing… Sotones (Record Label)
We are very happy to announce that we are officially working on Sotones Records' roster. In the coming months, Sotones will be treating us all to a plethora of music from bands and musicians like Haunted Stereo, Fresh Legs, Moneytree, Nato, Lonely Joe Parker, The Moulettes and many more.Members of Sotones will guest on Resonance FM's Hello Goodbye show on 13th February 2010. To get an idea of what the label are about (that's a passion for music and a love of fun by the way...), you can listen to this Sound Cloud Sotones documentary they recently recorded.
Sotones was founded as a co-operative. This means that the artists are also members, who own the label entirely together.
The first label sampler was reviewed in Kruger Magazine and received airplay on several local BBC Introducing shows. It featured artists who are still with Sotones today as well as Blakfish and Band Of Skulls (then known as Fleeingnewyork) who have since gone on to do great on their own.
Sotones acts have played across the UK as well as Ireland, France, Belguim, Italy, Spain, Estonia, Germany and the US. These include support tours for The Ting Tings, The Holloways and Mystery Jets, as well as requested support slots for Noisettes, Thomas Tantrum, Delays, SixNationState and me:one.
The label has released over 25 records and the label's output has received local and national radio play on BBC stations including BBC Radio 1, 6Music and Radio 2 as well as Xfm and Resonance FM. Sotones artists have caught the attention of national and international traditional and online media, including Kerrang!, NME, Rock Sound, Drowned In Sound, Artrocker, Clash Magazine and Kruger Magazine.
