So a bit of a Christmas treat today. Back in July 2002 Liberty 37 started work on their third album with a number of sessions at Mighty Atom. These have sat in the archives for 16 years. I recently dug these out. The songs were in various states of completion but a couple were pretty […]

Today is my son, Sean Simpson’s 27th birthday. When Sean was much younger back in 2004 one of his all time favourite bands was Hondo Maclean. My favourite dad moment with the label was taking Sean and some of his friends into Mighty Atom while Hondo were recording their first album. The band were brilliant […]
