Hi or Hey Records is a record label created by Australian rock band 5 Seconds of Summer (5SOS). The name for the label was chosen via a fan vote on Twitter on 22 January 2014.
On the Hi Or Hey Records website, the band explained that not only would they be releasing all of their music through Hi Or Hey Records in conjunction with Capitol Records and Universal Music, but they would also be signing a roster of their own bands and releasing them via the label.
On March 24, 2015, the label signed rock band Hey Violet. Hey Violet is the only band signed to the label. Both bands signed are pop rock based. This is an example of a smaller record company.
