Tessanne Chin Uncovers Artwork and Tracklisting For Count On My Love

Season five winner of NBC’s The Voice, TESSANNE CHIN, just uncovered the artwork and track listing for her full-length debut album, Count On My Love [Republic Records]. Check out the stunning cover photo above, and the full track listing is included below.

On July 1, 2014, the physical record arrives exclusively in Wal-Mart stores, while the digital version becomes available through all online retailers. You can pre-order it on iTunes now.

Already, fans have gotten a taste of what’s to come from Count On My Love with the single "Everything Reminds Me Of You". The singer and songwriter made a triumphant return to The Voice’s stage in order to perform the song for the first time last month. The track features production by Grammy Award-winning Jamaican sensation Supa Dups [Drake, Bruno Mars] and is co-written by Rock City [Rihanna, R. Kelly] and TESSANNE. Musically, it tempers a Caribbean bounce with striking pop panache.

Meanwhile, the album begins with the infectious “Tumbling Down”. The title track showcases her vocal prowess, while “Heaven Knows” sounds utterly divine. Closing with the powerful “One Step Closer”, the album shows every side of this multi-talented performer.

TESSANNE dazzled audiences on The Voice. As part of Adam Levine's team, she covered Simon & Garfunkel's "Bridge Over Troubled Water" and Whitney Houston’s “I Have Nothing” among other classics, and both renditions shot to #1 on the iTunes overall Top Songs chart. The artist earned a place in America's heart, winning season five. Recently, she joined legends such as Patti LaBelle and Aretha Franklin as well as label mate Ariana Grande and Jill Scott, Melissa Etheridge and Janelle Monáe at the White House for a special Women of Soul concert. Watch here!

MusicMafia presents up and coming artist Nick Dixon

At just 17, Nick Dixon is already planting his name in pop culture. In 2013, Nick appeared on BBC’s talent search, The Voice, impressing judges, especially Danny O’Donoghue of band The Script, in the ‘blind auditions’. Narrowly missing out on a place in the next round, Nick had to promise to the judges that he would return the following year.

Nick’s full audition song has gathered a large audience on YouTube, currently standing at over 450,000 views, being one of roughly 50 contestants to be aired on the BBCs channel from the ‘blind auditions’.His appearance on The Voice has sparked interest from major recording labels, including Universal and SONY, who are eagerly awaiting the release of Nick’s original material.

His charity single ‘I am Loved’ will be available on all digital platforms from February 8th Music by producer Paul Donnelly and singer/songwriter Paul Hart, lyrics penned by singer/songwriter David Arnett, with Nick completing the track by serenading the listener with his husky, soulful vocals. ‘I am Loved’ tells a story of love and devotion; a piano pop-ballad with a subtle beat, this track has all potential to be the soundtrack of spring-time love. A simple but powerful chorus ensures that this is a song you’ll be singing all day.

Nick’s voice has an air of classic 80s soft rock; think Peter Cetera and Chicago, Richard Marx, Air Supply, but with a modern-day twist. Mixed with heart-warming harmonies and his vocal ad libs, ‘I am Loved’ will leave you tongue tied and gooey eyed!

Beverly McClellan Steve Vai tour and new album release

Blues rock powerhouse vocalist Beverly McClellan from smash hit TV show "The Voice" USA  is set to release her album "Fear Nothing" in the UK and Europe through Favored Nations on Dec 1 before embarking on the UK leg of her world tour with guitar virtuoso Steve Vai.

The television show, "The Voice" introduced her to millions of viewers as a singer of stunning power and range with the presence and ability to draw comparisons to Etta James, Janis Joplin, Bonnie Raitt and Melissa Etheridge, to name just a few of the great torchbearers whose legacies she evokes. Now McClellan is set to make her debut international release with Fear Nothing, an album which presents her as a true and original artist — a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and dynamic presence with the ability, authority and desire to carve her own place in music history. 

McClellan, who is an openly lesbian artist and activist for LGBT charities, believes she has a message: “It’s simple: be yourself, love yourself, always be honest, and let the rest come naturally. That’s the way I live my life and make my music,” she says. And that’s the easygoing Zen she applied to the recording of Fear Nothing at Los Angeles’ House of Blues studios with producer David Z. (Prince, Fine Young Cannibals, Billy Idol, Buddy Guy).

A soulful rock singer with honest lyrics and a raw sound, Beverly plays over 10 instruments and has already released five independent albums. Originally from Virginia, she’s worked the clubs and bars around Fort Lauderdale, Florida for nearly 20 years, always looking for that big break.
Having recorded lead vocals for the song "John the Revelator" on Steve Vai's 2012 album The Story of Light, McClellan is excited to be bringing her music to the world out on the road with the legendary guitar maestro this autumn.

Beverly McClellan’s “Fear Nothing [Tour Edition]” is released Dec 1 and will only be available in Europe. This special package contains 3 never before released bonus tracks.

Here's the next upcoming artist we reckon you should check out: Her name is Andrea LeClaire (@Andrea_LeClaire) - 15 year old singer/songwriter from Boston, MA. Andrea has co-written a single for Devon Barley, a semifinalist on NBC’s “The Voice,” and collaborated with Issa Pointer (of the legendary Pointer Sisters).  She has been courted by record label executives at Sony, RCA, Hollywood Records, among others, producers, such as Ken Lewis (Grammy Award Winner - Kanye, Jay-Z, Drake, Mary J.
