New Hello Shark tape + tour dates Posted 28 Apr 2017

Now available: Hello Shark- Break Arms & H.S. (ORD-28)

A limited edition two-for-one tape of two Hello Shark albums, available in two colors (red & blue) with a reversible j-card cover

Hello Shark’s Linc Halloran writes heart-wrenching pop songs of young love & aimlessness, loaded with perfectly vivid turns of phrase that bloom & wilt all at once. The stories are uplifting for their familiarity, & hilarious for their humility. More than anything, though, they ache with thousands of small regrets. Disappointment & romance are everywhere, if you look hard enough.

This limited edition cassette release collects Hello Shark’s beloved first two albums, 2011’s Break Arms & 2013’s H.S., both originally released on compact disc by Burst and Bloom Records. The collection commemorates Hello Shark’s “classic” Burlington, VT line-up (Alex Decato on drums, Sean Hood on bass, & Linc Halloran on guitar & vocals) from way back when the world was young, before the wind blew Linc to Philadelphia, PA.

Listening to young Linc’s words & voice on these recordings remind me of waking up in a sleeping bag on a bare mattress on a cold morning, blearily remembering the night before, wondering how the sand got in my shoes. They remind me of window sills full of empties, & texts unsent because my phone died. They remind me of parents’ hand-me-down Volvo station wagons filled with boxes & books, moving my life away from a college town where I did not attend college, & crossed fingers for better luck elsewhere.

DEAR NORA- Mountain Rock vinyl reissue now available for pre-order! Posted 05 Dec 2016

Dear Nora, Katy Davidson's long-since-retired indie pop/folk project, has announced the reissue of their 2004 classic fan favorite, Mountain Rock, on vinyl for the first time ever. In recent years there has been a newfound interest in the music of Dear Nora, thanks in part to the Girlpool song titled "Dear Nora" and Joyce Manor name dropping the band as one of the influences for their new album, Cody. The Mountain Rock reissue is available for pre-order now and due out January 13th via Orindal Records.

We're also offering limited edition Dear Nora t-shirts! They're also available for pre-order here.
