Back Pocket Records is an independent collective of songwriters and musicians, based loosley around the 'Back Pocket Recorders' studio run by Melbourne musician Ken Stephenson.

The studio has been running in some form or other since 1983

We are currently (2012) undergoing an upgrade whereby as many albums as possible are being re-mastered and uploaded to 'Bandcamp' so you can listen to the music to your heart's content.
