Turnout is excited to introduce you to a new member of our label family! Imaginary Cities hail from Winnipeg, MB, Canada and formed in late 2009 after a chance meeting between sets at The Cavern. They are quickly becoming one of Canada’s most talked about bands and we expect the same once their record hits the US in March 2012. They are renowned for their instantly captivating songs and Marti’s unique and beautiful vocals. They have previously toured with the reunited Pixies and as of March they will be doing their first headlining tour of Europe.

Internationally acclaimed artist, Cloud Control, has the rest of the world buzzing and now the United States can finally join the party! Turnout has the great pleasure of announcing the release of Cloud Control’s debut full length album, “Bliss Release.”
The Guardian (Live Review) describes Cloud Control as: “Blending the sunshine of the Mamas and the Papas with Jefferson Airplane’s boy-girl blues, Cloud Control produce stunning three-and four-part harmonies that sends band and fans into a frenzy of joyful dancing.”
Do yourself a favor and check out all the hype here at www.cloudcontrolband.com, and take a peek at this slick video.
Australian Music Prize winners Cloud Control have joined up with Turnout! Cloud Control’s debut album Bliss Release, was released in the UK and Europe in May to critical acclaim. Turnout will be releasing the album on November 22, 2011 in the U.S.
The Guardian’s review gave Bliss Release four stars: “There’s an appealing open-heartedness about the debut from Australian psychedelic poppers Cloud Control, a sense of wide-eyed, slightly fried wonder.”
The BBC’s review said: “Essentially, this is some of the most consistent songwriting to come from Australia since the loss of The Go-Betweens, and some of the most arcane performing available anywhere outside of Arcade Fire.”
“If you’re looking for the bands of the future, then Cloud Control would seem likely contenders… they have taken the elegant folk harmonies of Fleet Foxes and Mumford & Sons, and given them a boot up the backside with great whooshes of psychedelic rock. Their sound is at once serious and joyful, intimate and epic. They deserve to be huge.” **** – The Independent (Live Review)
