History
Odd Box was launched in 2009, after the dissolution of earlier imprint Lost Music Records. The label has issued a steady and wide-ranging series of albums, EPs and singles since that time including well-received releases by The Wolfhounds, Pocketbooks, Sarandon, The Manhattan Love Suicides, Martha, Joanna Gruesome The Blanche Hudson Weekend and The Ethical Debating Society, as well as other groups such as The Millipedes, The Humms, The Wednesday Club, One Happy Island, The Monorals, The Smittens, Ace Bushy Striptease, Pale Man Made, Tyrannosaurus Dead, Wolf Girl and Giant Burger.
The label also operates as an events promoter as well as helping to organise annual festivals, including previously the Odd Box Weekender. As such Odd Box is regarded as a lynchpin of the independent music scene, alongside other long-established DIY labels such as Fortuna Pop!
