About Clouds Make Sounds

Clouds Make Sounds was born of sincere friendships, youthful musings, and genuine talent. The four original members began writing and working in January of 2010. The music that they create, quite simply, turns heads. It demands complete attention, alternately serene and bombastic, passionate and playful, it is something to completely lose yourself in. And that is exactly what those who have seen Clouds in their hometown and along the east coast will tell you. Clouds entered the studio in July 2010 and after a month of 8-12 hour days finished recording their first full length album. In the process Clouds enlisted the help of Shannon Cantor, who they added as a part-time member in August 2010. Part time so that she can fulfill her other obligations, mainly high school. After a few near-dormant fall months and their very first tour in the Winter of 2010-2011, they finished mixing and mastering the album and are releasing it on March 25th, 2011, a year after their very first show. Clouds Make Sounds is definitely a young band. So it is all the more impressive that the level of musicianship is exceptional, that the song structures are this complex, and that there is so much room to grow within the constructs of the band’s sound. Their album exhibits the broad range of their musical influence and prowess. Jeff Buckley meets Fiona Apple in a forest of driving poly-rhythms, folk sensibilities, dense harmonies, and an ever-present all-encompassing atmosphere. Their music is heard with the ears, but felt in the chest. on “Chasing Joy,” complex polyrhythms and lilting melodies support each other, reaching a level of rhythmic proficiency one usually only finds in metal. Josh Hines’ crystal tenor is a highlight, underlining the melodic strengths of the songs. Members have opened for bands such as Akron/Family, Slarrafenland, Jeffrey Lewis & The Junkyard, and E for Explosion. Gorgeous, enthusiastic recordings, painstakingly captured tones and lilting nuance populate the latest release from indie band Clouds Make Sounds. In the spirit of Polyphonic Spree, Animal Collective and too many other easies to need endure comparison, this startlingly fresh broker of hypnotic sonnets claims to have been bred of “sincere friendships” and “youthful musings.” -MusicZeitgeist Clouds Make Sounds combines “difficult” rhythms with an introspective aesthetic to create multi-part folk-pop songs, where the focus is on texture and dynamics rather than on verse-chorus-verse. At the same time, Clouds Make Sounds is not afraid to raise its folk-y idiom to the next level. The result is a promising band with a coalescing sound that is far more developed than the members’ ages suggest. -CMJ Order "Patchwork Vessel" now: http://clouds.bandcamp.com
