Hello CD Of The Month Club
The Hello CD of the Month Club (also known as the Hello Recording Club) was a subscription-based record company founded in 1993 and run by John Flansburgh and Marjorie Galen. Hello produced about ten exclusive CD EPs every year, each containing original recordings from a particular band or artist. Many of the featured artists have toured or collaborated with They Might Be Giants or have been featured on the They Might Be Giants Podcast. Due to circumstances beyond their control, the Hello Recording Club ceased production in December 1996.
