CHRIS LANZON SIGNS TO HUNNYDEW RECORDINGS + SHARES VIRAL COVER OF GOO GOO DOLLS' 'IRIS'

Today we, Hunnydew Recordings, are releasing a cover of the Goo Goo Dolls' ‘Iris’ by Chris Lanzon - we’re also lucky enough to be signing him to the label. 2020 was weird, but it also birthed this new label and ultimately introduced us to Chris, so we're grateful for that. We’ve been listening to his demos for 6 months, the private SoundCloud link has had a good rinse - he’s got a bank of brilliant music up his sleeve. It’s going to be a busy 24 months for him, and he’s also been doing a bit of collaborative work with Nick, so that’s been nice. Hunnydew family n' all.
