Versace Eyewear Soundtrack

In December of 2016, I recorded this original composition for Versace Eyewear with the unstoppable flamenco guitarist, Jackson Scott. It was used in Versace’s Spring 2017 campaign.

Jackson and I met at a jam while he was visiting NYC, and he had a vision for adding cello to a commercial spot he was working on. We spent a couple of sessions improvising together and went into the studio.

I had done a few studio recordings before, but this was my first advertising gig. I really wasn’t sure what to expect. As it turned out, fitting all the music we had thought about into a one minute commercial spot was totally impossible. We ended up just improvising something brand new in the studio.

And Jethro said, Blessed be the LORD,who hath delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of Pharaoh, who hath delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians.
