At Spirit, we’re music fans first, privileged to work with some of the most beloved songs and songwriters of the past, present and future – from the standards of Frank Sinatra and Billie Holliday to the pioneering rock of Elvis Presley, Chubby Checker and Dion; from the seminal blues of Elmore James and Lightnin’ Hopkins to the envelope-pushing jazz of Charles Mingus to the classic country of Dolly Parton and the Oak Ridge Boys; from the groundbreaking rock of the Velvet Underground, T.Rex and Alice Cooper to the southern rock of the Marshall Tucker Band and Pure Prairie League and the jam classics of the Grateful Dead; from the timeless soul of Jackie Wilson, Chaka Khan and Angela Winbush to the rhythmic funk of Boz Scaggs, Rufus and Chicago and the groundbreaking rap of The Treacherous Three, UTFO and Young MC; from the Latin hits of Ricky Martin to the Latin rap of Pitbull to modern rock by Scissor Sisters, The Naked & Famous and Hooray For Earth.
