Arlen

Arlen is a Philadelphia, PA based record label that was founded in 1962. Also known as Arlen Records, this label has been a pioneer in the music industry for over five decades.

With a rich history and an impressive roster of talented artists, Arlen has made significant contributions to various genres including jazz, soul, R&B, and pop. The label's commitment to quality and innovation has earned them a reputation as one of the most influential labels in the industry.

Over the years, Arlen has released numerous critically acclaimed albums and singles that have topped charts and captured the hearts of music lovers worldwide. Their dedication to nurturing emerging talent and supporting established artists has resulted in a diverse catalog that appeals to a wide range of audiences.

Southend quartet Ghost Music release their evocative debut album I Was Hoping You’d Pass By Here via Arlen. They create careful, considered songs, weaving lo-fi lullabies with gliding guitars and understated arrangements. Influenced by Silver Jews, Flying Nun and K Records, they explore themes of nature, love, loss and a melancholic English romanticism embellished with beautifully spectral melodies and executed with startling subtlety. Despite this record being their debut, the band has produced a veritable wealth of music over the past 20 years in various guises. Ghost Music revolves around the songwriting partnership of Matt Randall and Lee Hall, who had played together in the 90s with John Peel favourites Beatglider. More recently Randall has received critical acclaim as Plantman, with his three albums Closer to the Snow, Whispering Trees and To The Lighthouse receiving praise from The Guardian, Uncut and Mojo. When Randall and Hall reunited to collaborate on another album together, they brought in the talents of Roy Thirlwall on bass (Melodie Group) and Leighton Jennings on drums (Dark Globes) to complete the band.
