BLAKE AARON
“a genius on the guitar” - The Los Angeles Times
We all go through those times in our lives when we reach a cross roads. When we have to decide whether or not we take a chance, and just go for it! Do we go after the career we always wanted, do we put ourselves on the line to find and marry the love of our lives? “Dare to Fly” captures the feeling of that moment when we decide to put everything on the line. That feeling of exhilaration and excitement when we realize there's nothing we can't do, when we realize it's been inside of us all along and we find the courage to “Dare to Fly.” Self produced by 8 time Billboard #1 Artist and 5 time Billboard #1 producer Blake Aaron, “Let’s Get Lost” features lush string arrangements from 10 time Grammy Nominated String Arranger Tyries Rolfe and soulful Earth Wind and Fire style horn arrangements from Michael Stever. Imagine listening to George Benson, Earth Wind and Fire, and Bruno Mars all on stage together as you capture your dreams with Blake Aaron’s “Dare to Fly.”

A sexy mid tempo groove reminiscing on a new romance evoking happy and sensual thoughts of being together again, because the love feels “So Real” Extended Notes: After a hiatus to focus on her acting career, Aysha is back in the studio recording her 4th album with the first single being “So Real”.

Dorsey (Michael Jackson) is the Producer and Vocal Producer on the new single, bringing out the lush harmonies and placement in this track. Not cutting any corners, Aysha has some of the best in the business for mixing and mastering, bringing in David Rideau for final mix and then mastering by Lurssen Mastering.
TOM BRAXTON
Tom and Bob James take it "south of the border" and have some fun on "Nuevo!," a bossa-tinged party for piano and tenor. Braxton adds, "When I started composing this song from some earlier ideas, I was hoping that Bob would join me, and he graciously did! His piano was superb as usual!" Tom is showcased on tenor saxophones as well as flute. Braxton also served as producer and arranger with production assistance from the "Drummer to the stars," the late Ricky Lawson.
dee brown
“Finesse” was the first track recorded for the album, yet the song had to go through a process of evolution. Brown explains, “I noticed a problem with the song’s chorus. I decided to try an alternative melody, and it seems to work perfectly. So, when you hear the track, if you listen to the lead melody on the big body guitar, that’s the new melody and if you listen in the background, there’s another melody that is played with my Stratocaster-style guitar that is more like a picking style playing the original melody. They work together perfectly.”
BLAIR BRYANT
Silk and Suede is the sexy and sophisticated new tune from bassist Blair Bryant. Setting a moody atmosphere like cigar smoke hanging heavy in a room, this bass line gets in your soul. With spiffy horn lines from Donald Hayes smooth as cognac by the fire at your favorite speakeasy, this tune is a burning vibe. Blair is is bringing the rough and smooth just like silk and suede.
