Los Angeles, CA / April 4, 2011 - Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter Jessica Felman, who played an EP release show at the Cat Club on the Sunset Strip last week, releases her professional debut EP “Starting Over,” which was recorded with Juvenal Juarez at J2 Studios in Sherman Oaks, CA and is available on iTunes.

“I'm proud to say I've poured my heart and soul into this EP, and I'm excited to be sharing this life changing experience. The music and lyrics take you through the ups and downs of life, providing the hope and inspiration of Starting Over.” says Jessica.  

Daughter of the California sun and a scholar of music, Jessica Felman creates folk music that incorporates elements of rock and pop to produce a raw sound that’s all her own. Guitar in hand, she’s reminiscent of a youthful Sheryl Crow and at the piano; she displays the sultry purr of Norah Jones; paired with the raw strength and sentiment of Alanis Morrisette and charm of Michelle Branch.

Jessica attend the University of Miami where her carefully crafted music career started with a degree in voice and music business.  

“I chose to postpone my music career in order to finish school and was very serious with my studies.  So much so that I graduated with honors.  I’m at a point that I’m very proud of the work and passion I put into my music,” shares Jessica.

Yaro Places Music on Sylvia Robledo’s Political Sazon Talk Show



Los Angeles/November 17, 2009 –Music producer Yaro provides music for Political Sazon episode “CHICA on the Street 2: Carne Asada with the next Governor?,” which debuted on November 5, 2009.

Political Sazon is an online talk show centered around authentic Mexican food and casual political discussion and geared towards women and Latinos. It is an insider's look into the hearts of elected-officials, community leaders, movers and shakers, and is hosted by the politically savvy Sylvia Robledo, a food aficionado.

“They wanted something with a Latin sound but not necessarily associated with one country or sound, not skewed one way or the other. So I created this piece with some Salsa influenced piano lines, smooth bass and trumpets, and I think it works,” explains Yaro.

As a music producer, Yaro’s catalogue spans popular, urban, world and R&B and he has a talent for injecting African drum and Afro Latin chants - giving modern music a worldly texture and depth beyond a single genre. Yaro is not yet another studio-bread producer; son of Nhorma Ortiz, a Musicologist and founder/producer of the internationally renowned Festival del Tambor y Africania, his colorful upbringing has always included music. Raised in Latin America and now enjoying a professional career that straddles New York City and Los Angeles.

In addition to Political Sazon, he has also recently produced for Axxent Music, DUB, Machete/Universal Music artist Ese Daz and AM Radio 690.
