The Reason For Being....

It's probably about time to explain what we're doing here, what we're hoping to achieve and just how we're gonna do it!

We honestly believe that these are incredibly exciting times for young artists & bands starting out and getting into music. It's not so exciting if you're one of the big 4 watching your business slide down the pan that must be just like watching the titanic sink in real time....

There are so many ways to get heard nowadays and all the tools you need to do it plus the ability to get to market is pretty easy.

This isn't going to be another instruction site with tips on how to do that there are truck loads of sites explaining how to do that much better than we can.

We're just here to shout about things that appeal and to hopefully give a leg up to those artists that might need it.

Them:Youth are our first signing and they're recording their debut right now. The plan for T:Y is to release around June we think. Depends on how it all goes and when all the tools and tricks are ready to help promote it.

We'll be looking for other bands to join the Big Hand family that have recorded, mastered and released in another territory with a fanbase that are looking to license to a label like us so that can give them a UK/Europe leg up & distribution etc & help to build a presense outside of their own market.

The aim is to work in music, to carve out a living working with creative folk who just can't do anything else, feeding a passion and feeling a connection, it's not rocket science there's just not any other way!
