Title - 'Cloudborn' [Reissue]
Artist - Art in America

For those not in the know, Art in America (founded in Detroit, MI in 1980 and who reformed in 2000) was the first rock band to feature a concert pedal harp.

The original band lineup includes three family members: Chris Flynn (guitar, lead singer, songwriter), Dan Flynn (drums) and Shishonee Flynn (harp, koto, tamboura, vocals) and Jim Kuha (bass, vocals, songwriter).

The first Art in America (the self-titled 1983 album) was released on Sony/Pavilion and was rereleased in 2008.

The second album, Cloudborn has now been beautifully remastered and includes seven bonus songs (including two "live-in-concert" tracks) and was re-released this past August 1st, 2019 via Edgewater Records.

1. 'A Tale of the Unexpected'
2. 'I Am I'
3. 'Someday'
4. 'Drool'
5. 'The New Swami'
6. 'Someone Called My Name'
7. 'For Shelly'
8. 'When We Were Young'
9. 'Facelift'
10. 'Don't Look Down'
11. 'No Wonder'
12. 'Goodbye My Love / Mind's Eye / Peace of Mind'

On an album that features a delightfully comfortable and never errand prog feel, whilst still managing to employ catchy hooks and embracing lyrics, they begin with the foot-tappin' 'A Tale of the Unexpected' and back that up with the pop rock of 'I Am I,' the beautiful summer breeze of 'Someday,' the mid-tempo rocker 'Drool,' and then the lite prog bounce of 'Someone Called My Name.'

The free flowing pop rocker 'The New Swami' is next and is followed by the prog ballad 'For Shelly,' and the dulcet, divinely magical 'When We Were Young,' and 'Facelift.'

This quite stunning album then rounds out with the drum-led rocker 'Don't Look Down,' the gentle pop bounce of 'No Wonder,' and then brings the project to a close with the near nine minute work of musical art, the progtastic 'Goodbye My Love / Mind's Eye / Peace of Mind.'
