Charlie Pilzer, Grammy Award winning mastering engineer and producer, had a dream.

A dream of a CD label that let artists maintain the rights to their own work, reserve creative control, and work together with other artists to get their music heard and distributed. Charlie's vision of an artists' cooperative label has taken flight in a new label called Azalea City Recordings.

Azalea City Recordings has attracted an eclectic cornucopia of roots-based musicians and song writers who dip into the well of traditional music for their inspiration. While many labels are out chasing the next folk-pop sensation, Azalea City is a beacon for artists who draw from the legacy of our folk heritage to create music for the future

• It's a musicians' cooperative run by the artists.
• It's the home of fine musicians and songwriters who draw on the deep well of tradition.
• It's a nationally recognized Folk and Roots music label.
• It's a hometown outfit with a strong connection to its community.
• It's the inspiration, talent, and dedication of its members.
• It's music in full bloom.
