THE UNIVERSE
One House,
Many Rooms
Every band on the label is one room of the same house. A few doors connect them all.

The Back Room
Behind the label is a small press. The Back Room is where One Hand Clapping publishes what isn't about the bands — original novels and plays, some under Simon Oré's own name, some under pseudonyms, some printed as a favour for a friend. Same house, same seal; tied to the music, when at all, only by a wink.
Ridiculus, insolitus, tristis, pulcher
