On this episode Recording Artist Stina also known as Stina Battle joins us on the show to discuss what it's like working with Macy Gray. She also shares advice for those artists out there that are trying to break into the music industry. Don't miss it.
You may be asking who is Stina?
Stina is a 21-year-old singer and songwriter, dancer, actor, and musician from Los Angeles, California. Chateau Music recently announced the release of her brand new single, Uninvited. The song is an exciting milestone for the artist, and an opportunity to show off her growth as a songwriter and performer alike. Uninvited is particularly special because it is filled with energy, and it sounds very relatable, but it also has a personal edge that really connects with the audience.
The low end is so deep you can actually feel it in your chest, pulsating with every beat, especially if you are listening to this track with a good pair of headphones or a set of awesome speakers! The sound of this production is very wide ranging, and it offers an in-depth, almost cinematic tone with massive lows and silky smooth high-end, which really does wonders when it comes to increasing the sense of high-definition and clarity. The song is loud and polished, but also warm and clear, really bridging the gaps between modern-day records and old school production values, and combining the best of both worlds in a very seamless and direct way.
With over 120,000 streams of her 1st single "Uninvited" in just a few months, her new single "Summers in the Suburbs" is positioned to hit 1M streams by the end of the year. Keep your eyes on this musical sensation, Stina Battle.
