Biography

The brainchild of Hush Records president Chad Crouch, this group originally began after being asked to perform at a friend's wedding reception. Consisting of everything from jazz and rock to bossa nova and pop, Blanket Music continued to perform around Portland, OR. Compared often to Belle and Sebastian as well as Nick Drake, Blanket Music released its debut effort, Nice in 2000 on Hush Records. A split EP with Noise for Pretend was well received by both press and fans. Blanket Music also released a split EP with Reclinerland. In 2002, the band rounded its sound by adding two female vocalists, Corrina Repp and Esperanza Spalding; they released Move in 2002. ~ Jason MacNeil, All Music Guide

Blanket Music is a jazz-influenced indie-rock band from Portland, Oregon. Led by Chad Crouch, the owner/operator of Hush Records, the band is a sort of returning fixture of that record label.

During their tenure, the band has released five pressed records, as well as an eAlbum—a free digital download, something that Hush did several times for their acts who had a release ready but not the money (or motivation) to press and sell the disc.
