As we forge ahead into the new year, we are filled with much gratitude and excitement for what’s ahead, all while reflecting on the achievements of the past 16 years for both Melodic Revolution and our sub-label PeacockSunrise Records. We give thanks to all the artists that have contributed to the growth of this musical family with their hard work, dedication, and brilliant music, and to the fans that have continually shown their support for our artists, we would not be what we are today without them.  

2022 was a very productive and eventful year with over 2 dozen releases from about 20 artists, this past summer we were recognized in issue 131 of Prog Magazine with our contribution of a free 20-track album. Many of our releases garnered album of the year awards in over half a dozen publications and Sun King Rising won best video awards for both No. 6 Magnolia Ave and Free Will China Blue.

Most of our releases have graced both terrestrial and internet radio around the world and our artists have also been praised in dozens of physical and digital publications globally. 

We have revamped and re-branded the Melodic Revolution Distribution online store in an effort to bring more attention to the artists that we distribute.

There are two fundraisers that could use your attention listed below, thank you in advance.
