About Eastlawn Records... In 1990, my old buddy from high school, Frank Traum and I co-founded the Eastlawn
label to put out a CD by a group I had called the Sun Sounds
Orchestra, sort of an Afro-jazz outfit. Over the years we have released
many recordings of jazz, blues, soul, and even some rock -- all with a
distinctive Detroit flavor. We strive to release quality music that is
less mainstream. The name Eastlawn comes from the street in Detroit where Frank's father Emil was raised, as a tribute to him. Oddly enough, I lived on Eastlawn Street in the late 70's, so the name is somehow even more fitting. Our goal is to release great music that we both believe in, regardless of genre, although in recent years we do tend to release a lot of blues as Eastlawn is the home of Alberta Adams, Detroit's longtime Queen of the Blues. She is no doubt our biggest seller. As we approach our 20 year anniversary, we will be putting out even more recordings, including some jazz. Look for the debut of The Planet D Nonet on Eastlawn in early '09! RJ Spangler Vice President of A&R - Eastlawn Records |
