The European jazz label Igloo is celebrating its 30th anniversary at the end of the month. To announce this, we helped put together a press release that presents the core values of the label while announcing an anniversary concert on November 28, 2008 at the Marni Theatre in Brussels. They will also be featured in a special 2-hour edition of the radio programme “Crooner” on Belgium’s La Premiere radio on December 6 at 8pm.

Igloo have released first albums from artists such as Melanie De Biasio, Pascal Schumacher Quartet as well as work by Philip Catherine, Steve Houben, Manuel Hermia and Majjid Bekkas.

To check the press release, visit Live.pr. To listen to some of their music, visit their main site at Igloo Records.

UPDATE: Since this was written Igloo Records has celebrated its 40th anniversary. This was the occasion to publish a marvelous book about its history, and also that of the Belgian music scene in that time. You can find it here:
