the bedroom pop ep - now available as download only - this is the final release on please rain fall records



Please Rain Fall Records was set up only as a short term project / experiment. The label is now a year old which I think is a good time to finish. CDRs are no longer available, but I will leave the page up for anyone who wants to download the songs. Thank you to all the bands and artists for their contributions, and thank you to everyone who supported the label.

welcome to please rain fall records


Please Rain Fall Records is an attempt to build a like-minded community. It is a CDR label. There is no charge for any of the releases. I looked around and saw paypal buttons and requests for debit / credit card details. I didn't like what I was seeing. That is not my world. Just e-mail me to say hello and supply your address details, and I will send a CD. In exchange, you then send something back. This could be a story, a drawing, mixtape, badges, something you've knitted.. anything. Use your imagination. The first release on Please Rain Fall Records is coming soon. It is called 'The Black Country Pop EP' and features songs by The Proctors, The Cudgels, Endless Bob Brown and Oporto. Watch this space for further details..
