Paradiddle Records is hailed as "One of the true champions of Long Island music" (Good Times Magazine, 1/30/07)
Paradiddle Records was forged on a lifelong love of discovering new and exciting music. Our goal is to bring this joy of discovery to a broader audience.
We are pleased to showcase exciting new songwriters and musicians. Paradiddle Records UnCovered series has explored the music of Bob Dylan and Ray Davies. Giving the artists the freedom to interpret the music of these wonderful songwriters, letting them make the songs their own, has resulted in two critically acclaimed releases.
As a Long Island based company we are particularly proud to showcase Long Island's outstanding talent. Our list of artists ignores genres and explores music in all is permutations. Russ Seeger (Rock, Folk, Roots), Jay Scott (Rock, Folk Rock, Singer/Songwriter) Chris P. Cauley (Hard Rock), Johnny Cuomo (Folk, Singer/Songwriter, Irish & Children's Music), Butchers Blind (Americana Roots), Iridesense (Rock & Pop). And through our Uncovered series we have touched on every musical style imaginable.
2010 saw the release of "Kinks UnKovered", "Live in the Lobby Volume 2" and "Life in a Hurry" by Jay Scott. In 2011 look for a Nanci Griffith Tribute featuring such diverse talent as Caroline Doctorow, The Kennedys, Tom Russell, Last Train Home, Jerry Jeff Walker, Amy Rigby, Tracy Grammer, John Stewart, Edwina Hayes, Julie Gold, Red Molly, Carolyn Hester, Stacy Earl, Marc Stuart and Sarah Hickman.
