Benj Heard Platinum selling writer/producer Benj Heard has crafted his signature grit-soul sound with the sonic landscape of musicians of the past, as well as the Top 40 sensibility he has become known for. That fusion of old and new makes for a beautiful musical self-portrait likened to Bing Crosby,Sam Smith, Nat King Cole, and Justin Timberlake. He has worked with platinum selling artists including Eamon, Jason Wade (Lifehouse), Colbie Caillat, and David Guetta. He has also been taking the licensing world by storm representing brands such as Apple, Microsoft, Google, Nikon, Samsung, The NFL, Virgin America and many more.  Katrina Stone  While the independent music scene in Los Angeles is vast and daunting, there are, on occasion, acts that break through the noise to prove their relevance as music moguls in the making. Katrina Stone is one of those rare talents.  Her honest soulful pop sound has landed her performance residencies in Hollywood like the Universal CityWalk Main Stage and Margaritaville.  She has has been lauded on an international scale through scoring brand endorsements, performing on national stages like the Warped Tour, and even earning critical praise for her songwriting that can be heard in advertisements around the world.  The Odds Is love really love without heartbreak? As far as Albert Aguilar, aka The Odds, is concerned, the answer is a definitive no. Aguilar explores that intersection of the bitter and the sweet in love on “CLF,” the tender and dynamic new single from the Odds’ upcoming self-titled LP about the rise and fall of a relationship. Aguilar’s inventive production builds around a cinematic piano line and invigorating percussion but it’s his rich voice that truly sells the song, with sorrow and affection crackling out of the lo-fi vocal filter as he repeats “Yeah, okay, a heart breaks” as though he’s trying to convince both himself and the listener of some “time heals all wounds” advice.
