Hand & Face Records, started March 10th 2008, is an independant start-up label designed to promote smalltown music from a few different sources under one name. Concerned with friendship over musical pigeonholes, H&F is a bi-genre idea. Over the last four years, a small number of projects have been going on, bands forming, bands splitting, back-catlogues and snippets of songs put out to pasture and music being committed to tape without there ever being a real purpose for it to do anything. Hand & Face Records’ intent is to bring all of this music together, in one place; the one place it will be treated properly, warts and all.

Key to this progression of various musical outings, artists such as rockers Emergency One and Marshal Plan, indie-styled The Small Hours, singer-songwriter Thom James and his Scarfboy persona, jam-band collective, The Craws and electro-outfit Guns For Lovers, and whole host of other artists that have otherwise failed to be recieved in other areas.

With the likes of Scarfboy and Marshal Plan still active, the promise of new Small Hours material and debut material from Guns For Lovers, all of whom actively involve Thom James, a singer/songwriter from the Milford Haven area, West Wales, a collection of all material past and present was needed. Some of it may not make the light of day and indeed some projects have since melded into one another. It was from the seeming ashes of The Small Hours that Scarfboy’s purpose and re-direction was masterminded. And the demise of Emergency One meant that the foundations of Marshal Plan had strong roots set in a varying degree of influences.
