The Starbucks record label, Hear Music, has signed its first development artist after all those high profile projects with Paul McCartney and Joni Mitchell. The signee (if there is such a word) is singer songwriter Hilary McRae, who will release her debut album via the coffee label next year. A first track will be available in the US via Starbucks Download Of The Day programme next month.
Startbucks Entertainment chief Ken Lombard says: "Hilary offers the rare mix of compelling songwriting with commercial hit potential. We are sure our customers will see the same wonderful potential we see in her".
