About

Hello, welcome, you have found yourself on our info page, likely seeking more info on this thing. 

Funnybone Records is a community-based independent record label out of Hartford, Connecticut, founded by Dylan Healy. The label’s first release was View from Inside by Figurine on September 15, 2017. With the help of friends and collaborators, we’ve released a catalogue of music by artists who make our heads spin and hearts full. Spend time with our roster and discover your new favorite artists.

Our primary goal is to be a platform to support and advance the careers of  artists and collaborators. This is done through parallel growth and unparalleled passion. We believe in the power of community, sharing resources and skills, and connecting artists across disciplines. We believe in honoring one’s local roots as a jumping point to blooming beyond. We assist artists in manufacturing, distribution, publicity, promotion, and booking, too. Our catalogue leans on the more experimental fringes of genre and comes from all over the world. We live in some of our favorite record shops and coffee spots in the US. 

We love creating opportunities to gather by hosting concerts, listening rooms, DJ nights and secret-location shows. Tap into series we run with our friends, like ???? Shows and Paved Under.

Our Funnybone & Friends series of benefit compilations have become a staple in our catalogue, featuring our favorite artists around the world to unite for a good cause, including Lau Noah, Bernice, Lady Lamb, Babehoven, Renée Reed, Hana Stretton, Blue Ranger, Jodi, Alita Moses, and more. Through the power of music, we’ve raised funds for community healing nonprofits, including Hartford Communities that Care, The REACH Fund, the National Queer & Trans Therapists of Color Network, the Loveland Foundation’s Therapy Fund, the National Alliance on Mental Illness, and more.

Import Sky is a community arts journal we began producing with our friends in 2020. The journal premieres artwork and literature by creatives all around the country, joining pieces of each other to bridge the gaps between our physical, emotional, spiritual & creative ravines. We’re currently dreaming up Journal 03, stay tuned.

We also run an ever-changing mix called Funnybone FM, where we highlight what we’re currently bumping and invite guest curators to do the same.

Our platform is a privilege that we are grateful to have built and developed with you these past seven years. It’s a daily commitment to use it consciously to support the artists and communities that enable and inspire us. You can expect nothing less.

Check out our friends & collaborators: Aislin Magazine, Cafeteria Media, Connecticu*t, Blind Moose Studios, Sans Serif Recording, Kicker Pictures, Tiny Box Booking, GoldFlakePaint, School of Song, COURTVISION, Ruem Studio, SoundSoup.

Take care and thanks for reading.
