Local Green Band | Cloud Cult
The band Cloud Cult operates by unique environmental practices that have been covered by the media from the New York Times to MTV News to National Public Radio. On top of buying Green Energy Credits and planting hundreds of trees per year to compensate for any energy used and pollution created, the band has established their own environmental record label, Earthology Records. They have declined major label offers based on their need to control the environmental aspects of their business.
Bands That Go Green
Musicians have long been catalysts for social change. When it comes to the environment though, the music industry has lagged behind. However, many musicians today are climbing aboard the “green” tour bus.
Get The Music Out There!
I'm probably not the right person to write this column; there are many people out there who know more than me, I'm sure. I'm just a dumb punk rocker who wanted to do something for the scene and for my friends' band. I decided that a record label was the way to go. I started "Murder and Mayhem Records" about two years ago and had no clue what to do. Anyway, I wanted to put out a debut "seven" by The Louts. The band members have all been my friends for many years, so it was easy to work together.
