four dogs music is a new music website bringing you the best of traditional, contemporary and radical music. We also stock fair trade products, leather free footwear, DVDs, books and accessories.

Welcome to Four Dogs Music

Four Dogs Music was launched in November 2006.


We aim to stock as wide a range of music as finances will allow.  Punk to classical, world music to rock, folk to ambient, mainstream to the positively obscure, and all points in between!


The one common quality running through all of the titles that we will be stocking, in our opinion, is just that; Quality.


Its music with substance, music that matters and that makes a difference.  Whether this is from the sheer quality of the music itself, the political or social message contained within, or the stance of the performers themselves.  When all of these things come together at the same time, then something very special happens.


We are also stocking fair trade products, sweat shop and leather free footwear, DVDs, books and accessories. So please take a moment to check these out.
