halie and the moon's first full-length album, "Blue Transmissions: vol. 1 & 2", immerses itself in a world of ephemeral beauty, love, and sweet melancholy in equal measures. "Otherworldly yet intimate, their aesthetic is a kind of catch-and-release, grounded in pop smarts and yet forever urging itself into the firmament. The result is a symphonic, atmospheric sound that is no less mysterious and thrilling for being entirely accessible." (Rick Levin, Eugene Weekly, 5/4/17).
6 never-before-recorded songs combine with 4 re-mixed and re-mastered tracks featured on the band's debut EP "Blue Transmissions: vol. 1" (released 12/8/15) to create a fully-realized body of work representing these musical "Blue Transmissions" in all their myriad forms.
Includes full-color 6 panel eco packaging featuring all song lyrics.
Every CD purchase includes a free digital download of "Blue Transmissions: vol. 1 & 2"
Includes unlimited streaming of Blue Transmissions: vol. 1 & 2

Cloudy People
Written by Daniel Gallo (drawing the sky music, BMI)
The birds in my neighborhood never had it so good
They’re dreaming of another world frozen into
A seed in the sky and they’re willing to try
Without the fear of flying, but they’re trying to find
Who left the daydream behind
And you walk in streams of cloudy people
And you hear the strain of “hallelujah”
And you offer up a “won’t you help me, Jesus?
I got a lot of things I’d like to sing you”
So the mice in the man are making their plans
To a far away holiday from circumstance
So they bury the sky and they’re living inside
And the cats are crawling, falling,
Trying to find who’s inside of their minds
You drink the dreams of cloudy people
And you hear the strain of “hallelujah”
And you offer up a “Won’t you help me Jesus?
I’ve got a lot of things I’d like to sing you”
But if your head’s in the clouds
Why are you screaming so loud?
And why ya screaming so loud
When your head’s in the clouds?
You walk in streams of cloudy people
And you hear the strain of “hallelujah”
And you offer up a “won’t you help me, Jesus?
I got a lot of things I’d like to sing you”
The birds in my neighborhood never had it so good
They’re dreaming of another world frozen into
A seed in the sky and they’re willing to try
Without the fear of flying but they’re trying to find
Who left the daydream behind
This is perhaps Halie Loren's best album to date. The variety of styles, and the songwriting, are excellent. I have been a fan since she did the Port Au Prince Intl Jazz Festival a couple years ago. This album transcends genres. todd1049
