Founded in April, 2009, Doghouse Entertainment (DHE) had actually been a part time hobby of owner & founder James Hoskins for more than two decades. With the addition of vice president Rod West that same year, DHE quickly expanded both its' network of contacts as well as its' artist roster. Basing its' core operations on principles of honesty, love of music, & building true friendships instead of
clients, DHE has expanded to 5 staff members, multiple states, and has worked with over 125 acts. More oriented toward building local scenes than profit, Doghouse will continue to grow in its' impact of heavy metal music everywhere. With it's focus centered on the company's motto "For The Love Of The Music", DHE gained respect, and acknowledgement from areas throughout the U.S. The "Five O'Clock Drop" weekly you tube series was a resounding success with bands, fans, and critics that lasted for over two years. These new methods of reaching fans, and highlighting the local and indy music scene have solidified Doghouse as a force both in business, and as an organization dedicated to it's support of causes, and scenes. Seeing the need for bands to make other monies than the door, FPMG&T seeks to provide affordable merch with low minimums to keep bands going on the road, and playing at home.
