Zoe Bentley Video

I just had to give a super big shout out to an extraordinary Canadian artist named Zoe Bentley. I just mixed a song for her upcoming album, but thats beside the point of this post. Zoe has a song called "Stride" that i wish i had mixed (though the song was mixed well without me :-) "Stride" won the indieTunes.com Song Contest in the "Singer/Songwriter" category, and came one or two judges votes shy of winning the Grand Prize of the whole contest. Zoe recently shot a video for "Stride" and the highly influential Canadian video channel Much More Music has added it into medium rotation!!! Did i mention Zoe is independent? No label. Other artists added into rotation round the same time Zoe was include Mary J Blige, Daniel Powter, and Jamie Foxx. Geez!!! This is going to be tremendous exposure for Zoe, and rightfully so, she's earned it and worked hard for it. Hey labels, pay attention.

Zoe does have a supremely talented producer named Trey Mills working the studio side of things, and Trey has done a great job of helping to bring out the very best in Zoe. I'm mixing another project for Trey right now thats REALLY good, another Canadian artist named X-Quisite. So far i've done 2 mixes and I think another 2 to 4 more songs are coming my way. Cant wait to hear em. Anyway, ya'll should check out Zoe's website and listen to some of her music and watch her video, AND buy the album when it comes out. Her website is www.ZoeMusicOnline.com.

Now i have to get back to a mix for KC (of Jodeci fame). This song should be second single on his upcoming album, and it definitely sounds like a single to my ears.
