When Hot Congress initially formed in 2009, the only real idea we had in mind was raising money to fund the release of a compilation featuring the handful of bands from our small but tight-knit collective. In continuing with that tradition, we are proud to announce the release of our third compilation, featuring 14 tracks from our ever-growing roster.

Nearly half of the new sampler is comprised of new, as-yet-unreleased tracks from Hindershot, Colfax Speed Queen, The Fine Gentleman’s Club, Io, Skeleton Show, and Fingers of the Sun, while the rest is rounded out by 8 more tracks from recent releases.

The sampler can be downloaded for free (with email address) here: http://www.hotcongressrecords.com/sampler/2013
