Two weeks ago Cheli was lucky enough to hang out with V V Brown while she was in LA and recorded a message just for you guys! Check it out here :)
And if you’re randomnly coming across this and not a member of V V’s team yet, sign up today!
We hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!
Our LA team was more than thankful to meet up and be serenaded by Jamie Scott from Graffiti6 last Monday. He was nice enough to drop by the Capitol Tower and hang out for a couple hours. Pizza, jokes, an intimate acoustic show.. what more could we ask for?! A western rendition of Happy Birthday was sung (yeehaw!), and we were treated with never before heard songs like “I’m Gold” and in the spirit of the holiday season, a cover of Wham’s “Last Christmas”. WHAT A NIGHT!
Can’t wait to see you guys at the next mixer :-D

JUST GIVE US THAT BASS!
Our first monthly Capitol Street Team Music Mixer was a blast! Last Friday we invited our LA team and West Coasters to come party at Capitol Records with us. Thank you to Julia, Debora, Michael, Max, Alma, Victor, Alyssa, and Blair and Keon B of speakers for coming out!
Our team got to meet speakers, us, enjoy some free pizza, and do what we all love, talk music. We had the chance to watch an advanced screening of the actual, finished speakers’ Bass music video (It’s coming any day now! For now, check out the behind the scenes right HERE). The guys were even kind enough to play us never-heard-before music from their upcoming album! Then, in honor of Steve Jobs, we took to the photobooth app on Cheli’s iPhone and the guys let us in on their secret of how to be a “Winslow” aka their fam of supporters… pop yo lenses out those shades! haha
