Cloudride

Artist Information

Biography

Cloudride is an explosive mixture of silent melancholy and deep anger discharging in a storm to replace boredom and monotony by a wave of emotions. A music of great melodies and hymnic choruses, vast sound landscapes and brachial outbursts. Cloudride love to play with this contrast; they feel equally at home bringing their guitars to explode after a sensuous interlude or combining deceptively beautiful melodies with bitter sweet lyrics.

The tour for Cloudride's first album Overlooked did not only take the band all over Switzerland but on a tour with the band Amplifier from Manchester all around Europe!

After their 2006 Album Overlooked (Helium/RecRec) Cloudride will release their new EP “Vincent” as a free download on this website as well as on cloudride.com, last.fm and 78s.ch. They will also distribute an additional 10,000 copies for free. Copies meaning actual discs you can put in a stereo.

In 2010 Cloudride release two singles: "Stand Still" is on rotation on several swiss radio stations, "Empty Sheets" will be released in December 2010.

As if we all were stylefully drowning in a sea of sound. Their gentle tones were like pearls, their powerful dynamism completely captivating. It’s enough to make the sun want to rise again.
