When an Extreme Sports Ninja teams up with a Computer Scientist and EDM Music Producer, you get Zig Short and Yarley G.” - Posh the Socialite. NEW YORK, NY., JANUARY 26th, 2018 -- Do you want to hear a track you can almost taste? Yarley Gand Zig Short have combined their unique talents to serve up “Two Divine Mimosas,” a song that sizzles too sultry to sip. With a hint of 80s flavor, real brass instruments, and a clever collision of genres, when you imbibe the vibe of “Two Divine Mimosas,” you might be thirsty for more from Yarley G and Zig Short. “Two Divine Mimosas” is a collaborative effort between a pair of accomplished artists whose skill sets run the gamut; the track reflects this. Yarley composed “Two Divine Mimosas,” did the background vocals, instrumentation, and the classic talk box. Zig Short penned the lyrics and laid the lead vocals. “The inspiration for the title and lyrics came from one of my favorite drinks,” says Short, a hip-hop artist and extreme sports athlete from Brooklyn. “Two Divine Mimosas” starts out, both lyrically and musically smooth and mellow as it follows the storyline of a romantic meeting in a social scene. A classic talk box hits early, and the song takes off, just as the adrenaline of meeting a new love interest. With Zig Short’s fast-paced, well-placed words, are two other versions of “Two Divine Mimosas,” an acapella version, and an instrumental. The single is a free download for fans and will be part of part of Vivid Echoes, Yarley G’s first music compilation of R&B, dance and hip-hop set for release later this winter. With eleven years as a pro, Yarley G’s successes already include sync deals with FOX and BET.In addition, he has worked on TV commercial tracks with Kellogg’s and Smirnoff. His creative talents span a wide array, including the woodwind and midi-replicated live instruments – such as brass, strings, and guitars – all of which he learned while growing up. His skill set also includes the myriad of musical and computing skills he acquired after moving to the U.S.A. at the age of eight. Zig Short is a multi-faceted pro with a strive-to-perfection drive that sparked the creations of “Two Divine Mimosas.” He’s known as the “Ninja MC,” and has been performing professionally since 2010, garnering distribution deals from the likes of Nike 6.0 and others. “Zig breathed life into this single,” saysYarley G. He continues, “Originally only a verse and hook, I sent it to him - two weeks later he had the entire song ready to record. Zig Short and Yarley G have taken the best of old-school and let it age to perfection. They’ve used the best of new-school styles to bring it to the table. Maybe Zig’s favorite drink and “orange juice so divine” will be your next favorite too? Even if you’re not at the club, you can imbibe the vibe of “Two Divine Mimosas.” Singer-songwriter-guitarist Phil Circle has literally written the book on being an independent musician. The Outback Musician's Survival Guide; One Guy's Story of Surviving as an Independent Musician; is receiving outstanding initial reviews. It sells online through all the usual suspects. While his book continues to get noticed, Phil is simultaneously going through a year's worth of live recordings from shows to put together an album on CD, and going into the studio to record with his band for a vinyl release. As new attention is being paid him for having become an author (he's always been a writer for blogs and music pubs), he's making a new push for his existing catalog of some 85 recorded original songs spanning multiple albums. Minutes To Circle, his 2009 full band release, confirmed to Chicago media that Phil remained "one of our town's most unique voices." Book-ended by acoustic albums, it was his first full band effort since his 1997 debut and 2000 follow up live album. These first albums were applauded by Chicago and national media who described it as "just what the doctor order" and advised audiences to "let this disc wash over your soul." Now, as this 30 year veteran of Chicago music with a history of touring from behind his dashboard and playing on smaller radio stations adds "author" to his list of titles, he is enjoying the delightful rediscovery of his music by existing fans, while receiving attention from altogether new listeners. Have a listen to the music of the songwriter In The Mix Magazine classified as someone who "defies rock, jazz and blues" with music "from the master class."

King George marries pop melancholy with rock rawness and has been described as ‘The Killers meets Muse.’ (Creative Control Mag Feb 2014) The bands second album ‘Love Song and Medications’ was nominated for best hard/rock album at the 2016 Independent Music Awards in New York City. The album features the singles ‘Hover' that won the Best Thematic Award at the Australian Independent Music Video Awards 2013 and 'Broken Hearted Whispers’ that was nominated at Australian Independent Music Video Awards 2014 and Hollywood in Music Media Awards 2014. King George played Indie Week in Toronto 2013 and Canadian Music Week in 2015. In December 2017 the band released their latest single 'Who I Am' worldwide via iTunes and all digital platforms. Hard Rock band Chile Colorado's debut album's success at Rock Radio was a headline on the Newswire Jumbotron in Times Square, Manhattan, New York, across the street from the Hard Rock Cafe this month. The Chile Colorado band is next scheduled to release the digital single "Getting Restless" to Active Rock and Mainstream Rock Radio from the new self-titled album after having achieved 100 College Radio stations "Adding" the set for airplay. The 'Chile Colorado' album features Ron Wright, songwriter, lead guitar, and vocalist, with Paul Goss on bass & background vocals, and John Ferraro on drums. All three are veteran California musicians, influenced by Rock icons like ZZ Top, Robin Trower, and Jimi Hendrix. One reviewer said the 'Chile Colorado' album "combines throwback sound with a modern vibe in the new album" (WRTU.com). Wright worked on the album with engineer and producer, Chris Minto, who engineered albums by Quiet Riot and L.A. Guns, among many gold and platinum releases. Minto's wife, songwriter Janet Planet, also co-wrote one song. The album is available at iTunes, Amazon, and CD Baby. The band's founder Ron Wright has always had an affinity for Chile Con Carne, and as a young child he couldn't pronounce it well, so it often came out sounding like "Chile Colorado." Over the years, Wright began to use that phrase as a personal slogan for taking life easy and just having fun. When it came time to name his new rock band, 'Chile Colorado' seemed like a no-brainer.
Su’uka Drops Two New Singles “Pink Dreaming” and “So Far Away”
NEW YORK, NY (January 4th, 2017) -- Pop singer and songwriter, Su’uka, from Portsmouth, United Kingdom dropped two new catchy singles off of her anticipated upcoming EP she has been working on with Chris Hall from D/A Music Group.

This song is a fun one to listen to that will have you singing along by the second time the chorus hits. After one listen, you can’t help but be “Pink Dreaming” about someone you hold close to you! “So Far Away” draws you in from the start although the lyrics are slightly filled with more remorse through the characterization of the artist wishing they left someone, even though they love them. The beat of this song carries all the way through and is insanely catchy. Su’uka, again, presents a chorus that will definitely be stuck in your head all day. Both songs are available on a variety of streaming services including iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal, and Amazon Music. Mojo Watson was born and raised in Kansas City, Missouri USA.
