Hummingbird

 

An off-shoot of the Philip King/Nuala O’Connor film production company, this Dublin-based company issued some forty or so albums during its fifteen or so years’ existence, more than several of which were licensed to the label. Towards the end of its life it shared its premises and management with The Daisy Label.

 

All releases are CD format and prefixed HBCD.  0042 was certainly the label’s last release and there is some confusion as to whether 0039-0041 were actually issued. Non-Irish and non-traditional releases are in grey font.
