Music Matters Asia 2009

Flying half way around the World to attend Music Matters Asia 2009 was one of the best investments of time I have ever experienced. I am ecstatic to say that Music Matters exceeded my expectations not only as an Artist but as a Label Owner as well. It provided an insightful look into the Asian Music Market and clarified how different it is from the others. Asia as a whole is very intricate and I believe Music Matters has made it possible to connect with the right Music Business Leaders in order to be successful within Greater Asia.

The best thing I found was that the Panel Speakers took the time to network and/or introduce themselves to me or meet with me right then and there to see if we could accomplish future business. I appreciated this since most had flown in and had limited time to spare.

I also had the pleasure of meeting the extraordinary Jamie Cullum. I had been Twittering him and so when we met face to face he was happy we'd finally connected in person. He is a pleasure to know and no one will forget his unique Performance/Interview with Ralph Simon. Jamie's Performance is the kind you MUST see LIVE. He is spectacular!!

Music Matters Asia 2009 was a great event and many thanks to AlivenotDead.com for making my presence possible and to BrandedAsia.com for a Conference like no other!

P.S. I was put on the Mic twice while sporting my AlivenotDead Hat which ironically matched my outfit (Thank you Patrick/Etchy!)

From shining in elementary school choirs to selling out concerts around the world, Shairah has always gained the publics attention.

With Charting singles in Europe and South-East Asia, Shairah continues to receive recognition for the talented, dedicated accomplishment that she is. Tours for these areas will commence Summer 2009.

Selling out the Virgin Mega Store in its first week, "Search For Something Real..." Shairah’s sultry R&B/Soul album is compelling and original. Majority of tracks are written, produced, performed & composed by Shairah (Unless noted otherwise).

On the Jazz side of things, Shairah was lead vocalist of Tangerine, an outstanding Jazz Standard duo. Shairah continues to make elite performances accompanied by her Jazz Quartet Something Cool while working on her next album Shairah ’s undying love for Jazz led her to record 2 Jazz Standard CD’s.
