MILESTONE: The week of May 30th, 2024, we made it to #6 on the UK Music Week Commerical Pop Club Charts with the 1st single from ‘PIVOTAL’ ‘Kiss Me in the Rain Until Dawn Remix’. I have been thinking about and wondering if the charts were still a reality for me, a top-ten song on the charts, with one of my own songs, for years…and it happened.
