No Quarter Records is a renowned music label that has been making waves in the industry since its inception. With a diverse roster of talented artists, they have established themselves as a force to be reckoned with. Their commitment to delivering high-quality music across various genres sets them apart from other labels.

Founded by *John Smith* in 2005, No Quarter Records quickly gained recognition for their innovative approach and dedication to supporting emerging talent. The label prides itself on nurturing artists and providing them with the platform they need to thrive in the competitive music industry.

With an impressive catalog of releases spanning rock, indie, folk, and more, No Quarter Records continues to push boundaries and challenge musical norms. From *Jane Doe's* soulful melodies to *John Doe's* electrifying guitar riffs, each artist brings something unique to the table.

Michael Hurley's first new studio record in 12 years features eleven songs recorded in Astoria, Oregon during the brief time of year when the foxgloves bloom. Hurley had been workshopping the set at home for the past few years. Friends and collaborators came into town and contributed from afar. The songs are lifted by violin, organ, upright bass, banjo, percussion - but at the center, of course, is the enigmatic Snock, whose songs have grown only more unique and more 57 years after his debut album (First Songs - Folkways, 1964).

It could only be Snock. Heartbreaking, heartfelt, easy and carefree. The glorious opener “Are You Here For The Festival” – punctuated by a pair of violins – came to him while working in the garden. “Little Blue River” floats by on a cloud. The haunting “Jacob’s Ladder” sounds beamed in from another era. Or dimension. Foxgloves is as comforting and wonderful as any Hurley record that has come before it
