Influences: CLOUDSHINE's Label produces melodic music with great lyrics. We're based on the idea that when a new album comes out, it's an exciting event. We're happy if one cut on an album inspires you to download, but we'd rather make music that inspires you to buy the whole album.We all loved the great bands of the 60's, 70's, 80's & 90's. We love great artists who respect the MUSIC. We write our own stuff and collaborate with artists who also write. We promote our artists through shows and all aspects of online and other marketing.Is it unhip to say "We LOVE the Beatles"? Yeah, we do, but we love any group or singer that knows good songs that get in your head and stay there. We use symphony orchestras, or just the bands. We love great guitars -- electric and accoustic. We love folk (like Richard Shindell, Dar WIlliams, Patty Larkin), Lucy Kaplansky, Sheryl Crowe, Norah Jones. We love Richard Thompson, classic rock, blues, and we love great singers like Annie Lennox, Laura Pursell, Lori Black, Sting, Eva Cassidy. Yeah, we also love Barbra Streisand, Carly Simon, Faith Hill, Celine Dione and all the greats. We love jazz, folk, rock, movie themes, world music.We love ANYTHING that makes you say "Geez, I LOVE MUSIC!!!"
Sounds Like: Pop, jazz, rock, blues, ballad, Latin, ALBUM music with thoughtful, insightful, intelligent lyrics. But also like anything you might hear and wonder "WHO IS THAT? - I CAN'T GET IT OUTTA MY HEAD!!"
