Remi | A Taste of Eden (Avail Now)

Music, dance and art have
always been a part of Remi’s life. “For a time I wanted to be a
painter,” Remi recalls, “but music won out with dance as a close second.
My grandfather was a great inspiration to me – he was a Vaudeville
entertainer and my biggest fan!” While attending California Institute
of the Arts, Remi found both passions supported by the World Music
Program, where she studied African and Indonesian dance and music. With
her diverse heritage of Cherokee, Norwegian and Spanish, Remi found
unity in the diversity, which directly influenced her own music.

Remi signed her first publishing deal with Macy Lipman’s publishing company
Le
Grande Fromage. Soon after, she landed her first road gig as
keyboardist/vocalist/dancer with Babyface prodigy Karyn White and went
on to sign her own recording contract with an all female band produced
by Morris Day on Warner Bros./Reprise. “This is when it all started
happening for me” Remi recalls. “Ironically, I moved from Minneapolis to
LA and ended up working with artists and producers that I had always
admired from my hometown! ” Remi went on to tour with Motown recording
artist Teena Marie and as a keyboardist and duet partner with David
Cassidy and Grammy Award winner Christopher Cross. Her studio
collaborations have included Giorgio Moroder, Howard Hewett and Rachel
Rachel. You may recognize her from appearances on Felicity, Seven Days,
Freaky Links, Melrose Place and as the on-camera keyboardist/musical
director for the FOX show Comedy Express.

Her solo debut A Taste
of Eden is a soulful mix of sensuality and groove and is being embraced
by the European soul scene. As a featured artist on the Universal Italia
release Groove 90, her song In the Heat of the Night is currently being
promoted to 4,000 radio stations throughout Italy. Additionally, Remi
has 2 songs featured on Café de Souls Vol. 1 compilation, receiving
airplay in both the UK and Netherlands and you can also hear her song
Last Night in the independent film The Ten Rules.

Remi is
co-founder of Music Heals in Los Angeles, CA., a foundation whose
mission is to present music and art as a positive force for change. “Our
aim is to promote healing while raising awareness of important issues.
We challenge our audiences to seek creative outlets and be a part of the
solution.”
