Left Banke, Zombies, Beach Boys, Beatles, Posies are good reference points
for the first and only album under the name Jiffipop, as they changed their
name to Cloud Eleven soon after. This one has a more low-fi vibe than the
Cloud Eleven albums, but the songs are just as good. If you like psych-pop
with a sixties flare, you'll love this one. It includes covers of "'Til I
Die" by the Beach Boys and "Mournin' Glory Story" by Harry Nilsson. |  Fall Through You - Flying - Dreamland - Bring It Home - Firecracker Bloom - Mariposa - Mournin' Glory Story - Inebria - Fade - Chrome- Free Will- Soap & Water - Crumble- 'Til I Die |
| 1999-
Left Banke, Zombies, Beach Boys, Beatles, Teenage Fanclub, Cheap Trick, Oasis
are good reference points for this album, the first from Cloud Eleven. Released
on the legendary L.A. indie label Del-Fi Records in 1999, it made many top
ten lists that year. If you like psych-pop with a sixties flare, you'll love
this one. It includes a cover of "Didn't Want To Have To Do It" by the Lovin'
Spoonful. Additional musicians include: Zane Drake and Greg Schroeder. |

Left Banke, Zombies, Beach Boys, Beatles, America, Elliot Smith are good
reference points for the second album from Cloud Eleven. This one's a little
more melancholy than the first album, but still has a groovy west coast psychedelic
vibe. The songwriting and production values show a lot of growth on this one.
If you like psych-pop with a sixties flare, you'll love this one. Band members
are Rick and Nelson Bragg with help from Probyn Gregory and Rob Campanella. |

Terrestrial Ballet is a collection of outtakes, tribute songs and demos that
spans the entire Jiffipop/Cloud Eleven epoch. Some of these songs were on
compilations and tribute albums over the years, but now they're all in one
place, plus a lot of other tunes! None of these songs ever appeared on any
of the proper USA released Jiffipop/Cloud Eleven albums...they're all exclusive
to this release. It's 23 songs in all, so it's like getting two albums worth
of music on one little disc! This CD includes covers of the Who, Shoes, Teenage
Fanclub and the long lost Beauregard Ajax. Band members include Rick, Nelson,
Greg and Rick Hromadka. |

Melodic acoustic psych pop with lots of harmonies. The sound this time is
a more laid back, acoustic vibe than shown on previous releases, with Rick
playing the pedal steel guitar for an added dimension - without losing the
melodic/harmonic textures of past recordings. A full drum kit is being replaced
this time with the looser percussive sounds of tabla, bongos, shakers, etc.
A special highlight is a cover of an unreleased Judee Sill song. Guests include
Nelson, Zane, Probyn, Steve Stanley, Morley Bartnoff and Nick Walusko. |
