Julie Eigenberg
Julie Eigenberg, began her singing career in NYC, performing with such greats as George Duvivier, Eumir Deodato, David Spinozza, Vicki Sue Robinson, Moogy Klingman, the Brecker Bros., Leon Pendarvis , Anthony Jackson, Will Lee, and Lew Soloff to name just a few.
Julie co-wrote the song, "Why Not!" with Michel Camilo, and the Manhattan Transfer won the 1983 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal of a Group with their Atlantic Records recording of "Why Not". Alex Blake played on that recording.
At that time in NYC, Julie was forging her career in the jingle and advertising world, and had the great good fortune to stand next to and sing with Patti Austin, Valerie Simpson, Barry Manilow, Paul Williams as well as some of the greatest studio singers and musicians in the world.
Julie also performed on Broadway, at the Cirlcle in the Square Theatre's production of "Ghetto" directed by Gadalia Besser.
She went on to record her album,"Love is Starting Now", produced by David Spinozza for Polystar Co. Japan, Ltd.
Julie is a soulful interpreter of classic Jazz standards and her own pop/Latin influenced genre of songs. Her music comes from the heart and she sings with a confidence and style that has captured fans from around the world. You can find Julie's music on the internet, on Itunes and youtube check out facebook/JulieEMusic .
Alex Blake
Alex Blake's has a revolutionary playing style and technique second to none. His innovative combination of strumming, rapid lyrical notations and percussive slaps on the Accoustic Bass are on a level par excellence and distinctly Alex Blake. His Electric Bass Solo on the Beatles classic "With A Little Help From My Friends" exemplifies Alex's mastery of that instrument while giving the listener shades of Jimi Hendrix. His compositional skills reveal a composer with a unique third eye for melodic originality.
