Born and raised in Carson, California to Hawaiian parents, Bo Napoleon followed in his father’s footsteps as a singer songwriter. His success as a writer came when he wrote two hit singles for Common Kings, Wade In The Water, and, Alcoholic, which lead to a Grammy nomination for Reggae Album Of The Year. Subsequent to his success with Common Kings, Bo released his first single, Another Rainbow, which crossed over to Top 40 radio. Two more singles followed, Born and Raised, and, Rastaman. Napoleon’s biggest hit to date was, If That’s Okay, which was a commercial success and again crossed over to Top 40 radio. After sold out tours and with the onset of Covid-19, Bo released, Here Comes The Sun. When asked what his motivation was, he replied, “I’ve been missing my friends and family and wanted to make them something special, a fresh take on one of my favorites. It gives me a feeling of optimism and it’s a feeling I’d like to spread.”
Produced By Jonnie “Most” Davis (P!nk, Santigold, American Authors, Outkast)
Mixed by Tony Maserati (Jason Mraz, Shawn Mendez, Beyonce, Selena Gomez)

With smooth vocals that intertwine with her piano, Central Coast’s ELASKIA elicits raw emotion, rarely heard in a young emerging artist.

ELASKIA’S new single ‘Lying to Myself’ was written and co-produced by herself, produced and mixed by one of Australia’s top producers, ROD MCCORMACK and mastered by Grammy-winning CHRIS GEHRINGER at Sterling Sound New Jersey, (Rihanna’s Loud, Lady Gaga’s Born This Way and Drake).

ABOUT

With previous success in her song writing, her debut single ‘Calling Out My Name’ was featured in the hit American TV broadcast and worldwide Netflix series ‘Dynasty’ as well as ‘Marvel’s Runaways’.

ELASKIA’S follow up single ‘I Will Do Anything’ also landed on an episode of one of Australia’s most successful media exports ‘Home and Away’ as well as having a featured article in the popular teenage magazine ‘Total Girl’.

ELASKIA’S feature track with artist and producer GEM ‘Rich Girl Remix’ was featured in the Billboard magazine Grammy edition in 2019 where it was announced, along with ELASKIA’S single ‘Calling Out My Name’ in ballot one for the Grammys®.

ELASKIA has a sound that can best be compared to the artists she’s opened for Vera Blue, Alpine, and has also shared the line-up with acts RUFUS, Peking Duk, Gang of Youths, The Preatures, The Jungle Giants, Ocean Alley, Skeggs and Amy Shark.

I get many songs across my desk these days, even in this Covid time, but this one stood out from the pack and I hope you agree.
