In August 2013 she had the opportunity to be in touch with a music producer (Alex Cantrall) who has worked with many artists.


“Let Me Go” the single to singer/songwriter Shayla Souliere is a fun pop song but it also has a message and heart to it. It isn’t aimlessly trying to be something it’s not or a run of the mill pop track released every once and a while. You can tell she put a lot of care into the lyrics, melody and the overall tone of the song. What is so great about the song is the clear vocals, they never once get overpowered by the production of the song. The production is also executed so well and clean, it’s simple and fun. It has a great beat to move to or even just a song to play walking down the street or in the car. Overall, the song has a genuine sense of it’s self, great use of electronic percussion, and Shayla’s voice is the hero of the song.
