GMUSIC Talent Manager Disrupting the Status Quo by Creating Multimedia Platform for Brilliant New Actor/Singer/Songwriter/Producer
NEW YORK, Aug. 25, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Lindsay Guion, CEO of GMUSIC, has signed on as executive producer for "Therapy," the visual album, motion picture and soundtrack introducing his client Barachy Lucien, professionally known as "Barachi."
"Intuitively melding the stellar sonics of today's cutting-edge Hip-Hop Soul-Pop with the straight-to-the-heart simplicity of vintage love songs from the golden radio eras of R&B, doo-wop, and rock 'n' roll, Barachi has hit upon a smooth modern sound to seduce lovers the world over," said Guion. His debut project, "Therapy" — bowing as a five (5) song EP and Visual Album — takes its name from how Barachi vows to make his fans feel whenever they hear his music.
"My songs and my sound are feel-good music that helps someone feel better and grow stronger," explains the Brooklyn-born and Miami-raised singer-songwriter-producer. "When you're not feeling right in your heart or mind, you go to a therapist to help you feel better. That's why I call my visual album 'Therapy.' My music can be a vehicle for people to feel better, be positive, love each other and live well. My music has no color line. Any age, nationality or group of people are free to fall in love to my special feel for the old school and new school of music combined."
At the core of Barachi's "Therapy" are love songs that Guion describes as "intoxicating" — like the heartfelt "U Got Me," the dreamy, piano-punctuated "Tell Me," the sunny sing-along "Yours," and the deep-space Sonata "Me & U," which best sums up the love-as-medicine healing mission of the project as a whole:
"No, don't be afraid
I'll shelter you from the rain
Yeah, sometimes you a pain
You so crazy but I'll keep you sane
Girl, we got something special
Darlin', you're so mine … and vice versa."
Barachi co-composed and co-produced every song on Therapy with High Volume (Gucci Mane, Jason Derulo, Rick Ross) and newcomer Exly. The sound was mixed by five-time Grammy winner Fabian Marasciullo, whose string of credits since 1999 reads like who's who of pop, R&B, and hip-hop — which, Guion says, makes Fabian "the ideal aural artist to sculpt Barachi's songs into mini-masterpieces." Barachi's debut will also shimmer visually thanks to Dame Pierre, who is directing the nine stunning videos for his Visual Album plus the accompanying film.
Barachi's career is guided by Manager Lindsay Guion for GMUSIC, and Agent,Mark Cheatham for Creative Artists Agency.
