Military Record Label, 'To The Fallen Records' Releases First Album

Album Showcases Military Experiences With Mainstream Appeal Through the Music of Military Artists

PROVIDENCE, R.I., Feb. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- 'To The Fallen Records,' a veteran owned music record label showcasing military artists and the music that depicts their personal experiences, announces today the release of their inaugural album, To The Fallen - Volume I. The first album's format is hip-hop featuring powerful lyrics with mainstream appeal; however the record label is not genre specific, but rather captures the musical interpretation of military service and experiences in all musical formats, for release in subsequent volumes.

Co-founder and CEO of To The Fallen Records, Sean Gilfillan, is a former U.S. Army Officer and a disabled war veteran who has always had a passion for music. Upon returning home from serving in the Middle East, he and his business partner Sidney DeMello began collecting music from military artists around the world. "We wanted to show America the people behind the uniform," stated Gilfillan, "their struggles, their pride in the military, their dedication to our country and passion for serving the nation." Each track on the music CD is preserved in its original format from the artist, and is in no way censored, filtered or altered by the label. The music is created by artists stationed overseas in Korea and Germany, artists who set-up studios in Iraq and Afghanistan, and artists stationed in the United States. Lyrics come straight from the artists' mouths and describe their most private and intense moments, telling the stories and experiences of being a marine, soldier, airman, or sailor in today's military.

The CD compilation, Volume I, consists of fourteen individual tracks from active, guard, reserve or veteran service members from all branches of the military. Sidney DeMello, Co-Founder and President, describes the music as "heart felt with mainstream appeal." She further states, "This CD is a full 60 minutes of raw emotion and personal storytelling. Each artist weaves their personal life and experiences into every lyric and every beat, drawing you into their lives. You cannot listen to the tracks without feeling humbled by their service and the honesty with which they tell their stories."

The record label was established not only to showcase military talent and experiences, but also to give back to military members and their families. A percentage of profits are donated to military and/or social organizations, in honor of those who have fallen in the line of duty or have become disabled while serving their country.
