Hello everyone,
i have not been on here in a long time. Life is good tho. Busy but good. I am working on an album with my acoustic folk band the bees and the birds. They are good people and we have good times. I am working really hard on my entertainment agency. I would really really really love to see some friends at some of my shows supporting what i am doing. I have attached a copy of my newsletter. I would love to hear what everyone thinks of it and what i can inprove with it. I am using a thing called message bot to send it out to people. Its just a program that lets me send it out to everyone who signs up for my newsletter. I would love it if you were apart of the news letter. go to www.myspace.com/cloudentertainment and sign up for it!! I would love fedback and maybe some kids out at the shows. I hope everyone is doing well on here. Take care

Hello Everyone,
This is Cloud Entertainment’s weekly newsletter to give you a heads up on upcoming shows to check out around your neighborhood. Cloud Entertainment is a local DIY independent promotion and booking agency based out of Philadelphia. We carefully scope out breaking artists to showcase at our shows. Here is what is going the next couple weeks.
Friday, September 29th
@ World Café Live
3025 Walnut st. Philadelphia, PA
www.worldcafelive.com
shows starts at 9pm/ $6 cover at door
AMY PICKARD AND THE CRADLERS Amy Pickard sings bittersweet country songs that blur the lines between folk music, traditional Americana, and hate mail. Her spare arrangements and rough country flatpicking complement a writing and performing style that is intimate and to the point. During live shows, her curiosity about history, ladies’ boxing, and the vexing existence of David Allan Coe, Stephen Foster and other genius country/folk songwriters replaces between-song patter with genuine conversation.
DAVID JANES David’s songs range from tender love songs to that of psycho-dramatic dream songs about ghosts and vampires. His voice can be delicate and soaring in falsetto tones and at other times low down dirty and mean! All the while punching out the chords on his trusty Gibson J-50, it’s my best investment, ever! He once said. David is faithfully backed by Nathan Gonzalez on the guitar, accordion and the piano. Together, you see a chemistry that is undeniable.

open mic 5-6/ headliners 6-9/ FREE SHOW
ANDREW LIPKE (MAD DRAGON RECORDS) -Great Performer.
“Andrew Lipke is an extremely convincing presence on the microphone whether by serenade or spine-bending angst. Each song that I’ve sampled exudes these vocal attributes.”
-Repo Phreshwater.com
“Andrew Lipke’s voice at times recalls a non-whining Thom Yorke, but at other times is a dead ringer for Thrak-era Adrian Belew…and, when called upon to do so, can usher forth absolutely spine-tingling, angst-riddled shrieks.”
-Aaron Jazy Prog4you
LORETTA ALLEN -Unique acoustic folk rock
There are a lot more shows coming up. Go to www.myspace.com/cloudentertainment for more information on upcoming shows. Thank you everyone who has come out to any of these shows and whoever continues to support cloud entertainment. We are nothing without the support.
