Harriet Schock currently in theatres!!!

2009-08-06T13:44:00.000-07:00

Songplacements wants to congratulate member Harriet Schock for her work on the Henry Jaglom film ‘Irene In Time.’ Schock is featured in the film playing four of her own orginal tracks.

Here are what the critics are saying about Harriet’s Music:

“Harriet Schock's literate songs are characters in themselves; the harmonizing voices of Irene's recording sessions provide eloquent counterbalance to the soul-searching dialogue.”

-Sheri Linden, L.A. Times

“Prolific gold and platinum Los Angeles based singer/songwriter Harriet Schock is lending her narrative talents to the latest film directed by cinematic auteur Henry Jaglom. The feature, titled ‘Irene in Time,’ is centered on the complex relationships between fathers and daughters, and the potential lifelong consequences of these complex bonds. Schock’s contributions include four songs she performs on screen in conjunction with the film’s star, Tanna Frederick.”

-Dan Kimpel, Music Connection Magazine

His new line of amplifiers are "intended for the most serious and discriminating player. The cabs are specifically designed to be light weight for easy transport yet road worthy enough to tolerate a world tour."
