Sing Sing Sing
My parents always encouraged me to dream big. My love for music started when I was a child. My music career started during my 4 years of college at the University of Miami with a degree in studio music/jazz vocal. Doing gigs and sessions in Miami lit the fire in me. After graduation and without hesitation, I headed to NYC.
I started gigging the first weekend I arrived. Studio work followed. I built a career doing gigs and singing on commercials (Red Lobster, Duncan Hines, Hasbro, Sherwin Williams, Modells’ to name a few). After 15 years, the business began to decline and I found myself wondering what was next.
Surprisingly, I landed in the corporate world. After all, music and math are related. I also joined a few non-profit arts and music boards. After 20 years (and a pandemic) I found myself aching to get back into the studio. With the encouragement of family and friends, I knew it was time to sing again.
The result: I released two singles; a remake of Jimmy Webb’s “Up, Up & Away” and “A Sign of the Times”, also from the 1960’s. My third single just released in April.
I cannot imagine my life now without music.
I encourage you to unleash and share your creativity! The world needs it now more than ever. – LM
