Dream Records

Dream Records | Dream Label Group was founded by David Hanley in 2008, lead singer of Press Play. David Hanley (President) and wife Gina Hanley (VP of Development) have one very focused purpose and passion… and that is to see lives changed. David Hanley is also a Foursquare Ordained Pastor under Pastor Wayne Cordeiro and a former 20 year full time Worship Leader and Worship Pastor; and Founder and President of Dream Records | Dream Label Group. David's passion and experience in the worship arena has allowed him to thread a worship culture throughout all 8 Label Divisions of Dream Label Group. As a busy songwriter, producer, book author and speaker, David's primary goal is to create a worship culture of humble, serving and God-honoring Music Missionaries. His relentless focus is exactly as his book title states, Worship 23.5 Hours a day; it's not the 30 minutes on stage that matters, but it's what you do with the rest of your life.
Lance Brown (General Manager) of Dream Label Group, is the God-given genius behind Dream's influence and success. Lance is one of our industry's leading minds and together this team puts all trust in God. Dream Label Group is truly setting a New Standard in the music and entertainment industry, while reaching thousands of lives each day. Dream is honored to represent over 60 artists and ministries worldwide such as Life.Church (Pastor Craig Groschel), NewSpring Church, T.D. Jakes, Potter's House, Lakewood Church(Joel Osteen/ Cindy Cruse Ratcliff), G12 / Soulfire Revolution (Cesar Castellanos), New Hope Oahu (Wayne Cordeiro), The Rock Church, Matthew Parker, Joel Vaughn and many more.
Taking advantage of the music industry's vast changes, Hanley saw this as a perfect opportunity, "The Perfect Storm" to capitalize on a vacancy and oversight in the general music market. With the streaming age causing a drastic change in the delivery of music, Hanley saw this a an excellent opportunity to not only master the digital world but to also stay the proven course on many of the viable systems and business models, that many major labels and independents were vacating.
Dream's approach and model is to not only sign and develop artist in the traditional manner of promoting an artist to the top of the traditional music industry and market - but also not forgetting about the church-based artist and developing a solid foundation of artists that are called, committed and targeted to reach their local, regional and world markets. Regardless of the genre, Dream feels that their job is to fan the flame and move the smoke of the fire that is authentically blazing from the pulpit, platform, community, worship, music and artist. Dream unashamedly admits that they are not the label or distribution partner to create the fire that isn't there. Dream is the passionate ministry-partner who proclaims and shouts about the fire that is ablaze within that artist and / or church of committed, faithful and passionate believers and leaders.
Dream is very focused on reaching the lost and hurting people of not only our nation but also the world. Dream is a Christian company in business to reach the lost. Dream doesn't see the lines between the Christian and Secular music industry but instead, wholeheartedly and proudly acknowledges that each of us are using God given talents… so let's use them for reaching the people that God sent his son to die for.
