San Francisco, California (PRWEB) May 24, 2004 -- In response to the American music industry's dwindling promotion of its own original art form known as Jazz, Owl Eye Records, seeks to contribute to the growth and re-popularity of the genre by drawing from the shadows virtual unknown independent artists. A handful of top Jazz musicians bask in the glow of notoriety while other worthy candidates seek industry acknowledgement. What is heavily presented and promoted to the listening public is a standard staple of pioneers who have paved the way for other new inspired and worthy musicians. The result is a new generation of listeners who are not properly exposed and come to believe Jazz music is old-timey, that is until they actually sit down to hear and absorb it.
