Out of the smoke-filled lounge arises Earl which brings back jazz and blues with her latest I Love You. Having shot the video in a rumored to be haunted castle in Ireland, the track has already made the Top 10 in Spotify’s UK Viral Chart.
The Alaskan born songstress grew up singing gospel in a church choir eventually making a move to Los Angeles, finally settling in London. And it was the UK where Earl made her mark. She signed to BMG Records after her first successful independent release.
Influenced by the likes of Billie Holiday and Otis Redding – Earl notes,”After singing at an open mic I was given advice. “Sing for everyone you meet. It’s only 6 degrees of separation…I sang for everyone who would listen and my songs brought me around the world…”

LA based Tim Olstad is creating a buzz with his latest track Piece of You which premiered on your YourEDM. The powerhouse vocal is Olstad’s strength, which in fact he can make any song sound good.
The track was co-produced by Ron Pope & Australian producers MOZA and appears on the upcoming EP All The Pieces that comes out tomorrow August 12th.
Having loved Etta James and Ray Charles, the Los Angeles based singer-songwriter jump started his career after finishing in 9th place on season 3 of The X Factor.
After the show, Olstad signed a recording contract with Ron Pope’s label Brooklyn Basement Records. Ron notes, “The first time I heard Tim’s voice, I was floored. As soon as it hits you, it’s immediate and undeniable. When you put him in front of a microphone in the studio, everyone stops what they’re doing and listens. I’ve never met anyone who is so obviously, undeniably meant to be a singer. He’s a star. I wish I could sing like that.”
