How is a perfect pop song born? Paul McCartney channeled melodies in his dreams. Paul Simon hammered out rhythms with a tennis ball. And Los Angeles-based pop music maestro Bleu first made up songs to lull himself to sleep as a child. The eight-year-old Bleu couldn’t play an instrument yet, so his early pop nuggets were pure melody. Literally. Even now that he’s an accomplished musician and writer, Bleu has never strayed far from the idea that the right melody can make a song. And he’s gone on to create lush, larger-than-life soundscapes as a songwriter, musician, and producer, no matter the budget or equipment.
Jim Boggia has gained impressive career momentum in a short amount of time. Blackberry selected one of his tracks for a new ad campaign and his songs have also been featured on MTV's Real World and ABC-TV's Men In Trees. He's developed a loyal grass-roots fan base for his dynamic, improvisational live shows. His work has been embraced by numerous fellow artists and kindred spirits, many of who have lent their talents to Boggia's albums. Boggia shows a career artist at the peak of his creative power, a self-proclaimed “music geek” for whom making music is as effortless as breathing. In a perfect world, everyone will be hearing more about Jim Boggia.
