Billboard chart-topper Erika Jayne to launch in Asia & Phl

The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - American music artist Erika Jayne (photo) is in the Philippines to begin filming segments of two music videos for her new songs titled You Make Me Wanna Dance and a ballad song Bringing You Back. Both songs are scheduled to be released later this year.

Erika, who picked the Philippines for this special music video, has to her credit six No. 1 dance songs on the US Billboard Club/Dance Chart. Erika ranks with the Pussycat Dolls and Rihanna for the most No. 1’s on a debut release. Promotional and performance dates throughout Asia are being scheduled.

For these brand-new songs, Erika collaborated with Ross Valory, bassist of the iconic band Journey and internationally-renowned pianist Eric Levy. The highly-anticipated releases were written by the team of Andre Pessis and Eric Martin. Pessis is a multiple award-winning Grammy, Emmy, Golden Globe and ASCAP recipient.

But more than that, Filipinos are proud to say that Erika is also collaborating with Manolet “DJ Papi” Santos and Marvin Querido for the new mix of the songs, creating an interesting modern vibe to You Make Me Wanna Dance.

Sanre Entertainment, a leading management company that represents and is affiliated with such artists as Erika Jayne, Arnel Pineda, Richie Sambora and Orianthi, feels that Erika Jayne will have tremendous success with her Asian launch due to her uniquely fresh brand and innovative style of music.

Erika Jayne was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia, where she attended North Atlanta High School for the Performing Arts. Based in Los Angeles, Erika Jayne arrived on the club music scene in 2007 with the electro-hued track Rollercoaster, which went to No.1 on the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart. In 2008 her follow-up single Stars reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Dance Airplay chart. Both tracks appeared on her debut album Pretty Mess, released in August, 2009. Erika Jayne released her single Party People (Ignite the World) in 2011 and went on to reach No. 1 on the dance/club chart in 2012 becoming her sixth consecutive No. 1 hit. Her latest single Get it Tonight is also the most successful garnering over three million views on YouTube.

Her music has been featured in such films as The Watch, The Neighbor, Deal and the hit reality show Toddlers and Tiaras.

Lending its support to this endeavor is Primeline Management and Production, Inc.
