True story… I was working on this beautiful campaign showing an infant and her mother spending time alone in their house… and the music we composed was absolutely beautiful AND called for a female vocal. For the live session with my clients, I hired a singer, who’s songs I had heard on the radio, etc. I loved her voice. The catch, she couldn’t sing the notes nor stay on key with a tune anyone else wrote for her. So, with clients in the studio, time flying by, take after take, not even the best tone assistant tools could help. My engineer looks at me and says, “Nicole, you are going to have to do it. I hear you sing all of the time, you have to do it, we are running out of time.” Horrified and completely not wanting to be in that roll, I did what I needed to do for the project and for my clients, and sang for the campaign. Everyone seemed thoroughly entertained except for me! It aired the following week Songs & Music to picture with my Team
The sonic of listening to our song creations at the helm… I love being in the studio with the audio vision of what I want to create for my clients in heart and mind. Talents and ideas coming together, all of the time
Part of my connection about what the populace wants to hear, happens while being out listening to live music. I am able to see the reactions of people, their emotions to different parts of songs played live and in the moment by bands, and what songs and moments really connect
Whether I’m producing a Broadway song, gospel, big vocals track, vast background vocals, etc., I always know the vocals session is going to be glorious, energetic and super fun. I’m so thankful for the high-level of singers we get to work with, each time, and love bringing this talent to my. Here, I get to work with the from the TV show and as well one of the stars of the show
Ah hah, another amazing original song for a commercial that sounds licensed… Check out my last post to view the spot, but I love working with whom I consider one of the hippest indie bands out there, I met these guys in years ago introduced me after watching a live performance of theirs and I was blown away… I started thinking about all of the amazing ways I could hear this band in working music to picture, and have tried to work with them every chance I could get! Jesika has the voice of my dreams and is one of the out there
I was hired to musically brand 7 commercials for the Fruit of The Loom’s $35-million-dollar rebrand campaign. I worked with many up-and-coming bands on these spots and loved my clients -they inspired me daily and I couldn’t have done this without them! The track I produced for this spot was done by one of my favorite bands Gram Rabbit. This band is unbelievable and I love their talents and who they are as people and artists.
