Rachel Gavaletz, Lead Vocalist, background - The Key to Be Free
Rachel was our first collaboration on the very first EAM Music release. A tone to die for, she set the “tone” for the type of artists we want to share with our music lovers and grace our catalog. She will always be the first.
Kayla Jay, Lead Vocalist/Songwriter - Worth It
I heard Kayla’s song Worth It while scrolling on YouTube and was inspired to reach out to her. The gift in her writing and vocal style is the connection she can have with her audience. Thankfully she agreed to collaborate with me on a 2022 version of Worth It that is born of rhythm.
Freddie Banks, Piano/Rhodes - So Real
As I arranged the music for So Real, I composed a piano section that I liked for the climax. I wanted to avoid introducing that part at any point in the verse, bridge, or main chorus sections. I felt I needed a different ear. I heard a sample of Freddie beautifully intertwining R&B, Jazz, and Gospel chord progressions on a song he worked on and thought, let me give this cat a call.
Steve “Mr. Mig” Migliore. Mix and Mastering engineer - Summer song, so real, Worth it
Finding a person that you just connect with is a huge plus. I felt comfortable with Mig right away, maybe it’s a Jersey thing. I came across Mig and he covered all the bases. Not solely respective to his expertise around the board, but also his talent as a writer and producer. That’s something you just pick up when you work with him.
Tamika Tyan - lead vocalist, background - how did i find you
As I was in the ideation stage with How Did I Find You, I felt that I preferred a female lead vocalist with a warm tone and the ability to use her instrument to convey both sweetness and power. This was important as it aligns with the arc of the story behind the song. Tamika was perfect.
Josiah ruff, lead vocalist - so real
When I wrote So Real, I had a voice and an experience in mind to deliver what is always a powerful message about love. When I heard Josiah sing, I believed that was it. I reached out to him, and our conversations about direction and delivery cemented him as the one to deliver his artistry to this song. I’m so glad I found him, a wonderful man I am honored to have worked with.
