about

Oval Window Records Toronto, Ontario

Oval Window Records came to life in the Southern Cross Lounge of the Tranzac Club in Toronto in 2003 when Joe Sorbara came to the decision that the music of Saint Dirt Elementary School, who were playing another brilliant set, needed to be documented.

There is more music to come. Thanks for listening.
