As CE awaits the release of our new instrumental single of U2's "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" to Smooth Jazz radio on 9/29, SmoothJazz.com has reviewed the record!
Cloning Einstein is blending clever, smart pop, soulful vocals and elements of jazz on their striking, self-titled debut recording. The five-member ensemble from Philly offers up a compelling, contemporary sound featuring plush vocal harmonies, catchy hooks and passionate lyrics. For those of us who enjoy listening to artists like James Blunt, Keane and One Republic, Cloning Einstein has created the perfect bridge between smooth pop and Smooth Jazz. Founding members started playing together in their basement when they were barely in their teens… they played through their youth and into clubs and college campuses all over Philadelphia, New York and New Jersey. To date they have built a large audience in their corner of the world as well as globally selling over one million downloads on-line! A band of awareness… CE is committed to making a difference through a variety of charitable causes, including their current Artists For Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign. Now recording for Toucan Cove Records out of Seattle with distribution provided by Universal, Cloning Einstein sets sail on a smooth adventure with their first single, a sophisticated instrumental remake of U2's generational anthem "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" aimed right at the heart of the Smooth Jazz audience. ~SANDY SHORE, SmoothJazz.com
