SLOSPEAK RECORDS SIGNS GOLDEN YOUTH
July 25, 2012
Slospeak Records is pleased to announce that Golden Youth is now officially a member of the Slospeak artist roster. The band recently signed an artist development deal with the independent label. Golden Youth created a video to announce the partnership to their fans:
Golden Youth is a culmination of the musical aspirations of Stephanie Lauren Smith and Kyle Monroe. They work to record relevant music that is not only memorable but innovative, unique and filled with hope. “We don’t want to be just another sound that comes from your speakers,” Stephanie shares. “We want to write something that’s different, pulls emotions and brings joy.” The “Quiet Frame; Wild Light” EP, which is the result of approximately 100 cups of tea, inspiring adventures, lots of love and a serious amount of laughter, is sure to deliver just that.
“Slospeak was the perfect fit for us because they treat their bands like family members,” Stephanie says. “We love it!” The love is mutual and the Slospeak team looks forward to working with the band on their upcoming release.

ABOUT GOLDEN YOUTH: Golden Youth is Stephanie Lauren Smith and Kyle Monroe. Their ambient, peaceful, yet energetic sound is unique and refreshing. They signed to Slospeak Records in July and are will release their EP “Quiet Frame; Wild Light” this fall. Follow the band on Facebook and Twitter or visit Golden-Youth.com

PIONEER GOES #1 with TREASON
February 28, 2012

Photobucket

Anything worth doing usually comes with it’s fair share of trials and hard work. Being in a band or starting a record label is no exception. (especially these days.) The woes of the music industry are well documented, and we don’t really need to go into that. What I do want to go into is that in the midst of all those trials and hard work, every once in a while, we get a victory. A moment that helps affirm what we are doing. A moment that lets us know that we are making an impact. A moment that encourages us to press on! Pioneer going #1 with their single Treason was one of those moments.

This is a big step for our young label and for the band! In a little over a month Pioneer has given themselves, and Slospeak our first #1 single. Although our idea of success as a label is not based around how many #1′s we can get, this is proof that we are having an impact on people, and that is exciting! I am super stoked to see what God has in store for Slospeak and our artist! This is just the beginning!
