Hook & Ladder Records is a model example of the collaborative environment at ECR Music Group. This new imprint—spearheaded and A&R’ed by ECR recording artist David Cloyd—is home for the developing artists emerging from his Buffalo recording and production studio.
Alongside his duties as ECR’s Vice President of Creative Operations, he’s also heading his own imprint, Hook & Ladder Records. “As an artist, I was always looking for a place where I could continue to push myself and develop all of my talents alongside other artists who were on the same path, a collaborative and supportive environment where the sum of the parts is greater than the whole,” says Cloyd. “I’ve found that home at ECR, and Hook & Ladder Records will reflect and express that philosophy as well.”
Artists
Buffalo Tango Orkestra
Buffalo Tango Orkestra’s debut album, Ecos del Pasado (Echoes of the Past), is one deeply driven by cultural diversity, and the diversity of multiple musical disciplines.

“.A dynamic mix of tenderness, optimism and imagination. Her gentle voice and plaintive guitar paired with mature, introspective lyrics instantly sparked producer David Cloyd’s interest and that partnership features prominently into the mix.”
