For Immediate Release
Local Music Publisher Signs International Artist and Schenectady Native Singer-Songwriter to Roster.
Delmar, NY - 2.25.10 -
Indian Ledge Records is pleased to announce that Bernie Walters, Publishing Manager of The Music Publishing Company has secured two new co-publishing deals. The first exciting opportunity is with local singer-songwriter Danielle Gaudin. Gaudin’s most recent success seemingly arose from thin air when she became the winner of the “Capital Region’s Got Talent” competition at the Revolution Hall in Troy, NY. The fall 2009 contest allowed Gaudin a chance to release two albums in a mere matter of weeks in November and December of 2009. Her first and second albums respectively titled “You Started It” and “Songbird” are great lyrical platforms to build from. Gaudin wants to be a songwriter more than a performer and TMPC will be working with her in efforts to seek film and TV licensing deals and to arrange collaborations with other writers and artists.
Initially Gaudin recorded tracks for her website, which allowed MTV to grab a few songs for the reality series "The Hills," and two songs for Showtime's "Secret Diaries of a Call Girl." Gaudin’s songs are inspired from the stories of others. She was approached by Tom O’Claire to write a song about his son who had committed suicide in 2001. Gaudin plans to release the single called “Battles from Within” to raise money for a suicide prevention charity. Gaudin will donate 50% of the songs proceeds to the charity.
Jack Harrison, hailing from the north side of Dublin is a yoga instructor, heritage consultant, lecturer, exhibition designer, and songwriter who concocts lyrics that depict spiritual and ancient themes. Harrison is the first international artist to grace our publishing roster. He brings two albums to the table: “Sailing With Dragons” and “Wind Across the Sea”. The first collection of songs “Sailing with Dragons” was recorded live in Kinvara, Co Galway. Many themes are covered by mostly an Irish Heritage. Harrison’s first recording of yoga music “Wind Across the Sea” had been performed for five years before he was sponsored by Yoga Thailand to bring his band and a sound engineer to go to Koh Samui, Thailand to record it live.
Jack Harrison creates as a “part time” songwriter, yet his music is completely tied to his work in historical contexts. Harrison claims the music became a natural progression of his research and work… therefore each process informs the other to create a fully integrated and completely realized piece of art.
Jack Harrison has worked with Liam Clancy and has appeared with Liam on the Late Late Show, the Point Theatre and the National Concert Hall as well as singing with the Galway Baroque Singers and Cois Cladaigh choirs in Galway, and with vocal group The Press Gang at festivals in Ireland, France, Poland and the US. TMPC will be working with Harrison to place and license his work in US film and TV.
The recent additions to Indian Ledge Records publishing arm The Music Publishing Company will continue to be administered by the Criterion Music Corp. one of the few truly independent music publishers still standing.
