Atlanta -- Song, the discount carrier launched by Delta Air Lines, announced on Thursday that it has partnered with independent label Artemis Records to create Song Records, which will offer albums from its artists for sale on Song flights, as well as digital downloads through its in-flight entertainment system. Albums will also be available in retail stores and downloadable from the Song Records website. The first two Song Records artists to be featured will be Artemis signees Better Than Ezra and Jaguar Wright, with new artists to be added each quarter. "This venture was exciting to us because the music industry needs to really take risks and try some different things to create new avenues of visibility and that is what this will do," said Daniel Glass of Artemis Records.
