I want to buy a really good recording microphone so it'll sound like I'm singing right in to your ear! No, this is not supposed to be creepy...!
Hire a pro!
With a real budget I can start hiring professionals to shoot and edit the videos!
About
WWW.CYRILLEMUSIC.COM
Vocalist Cyrille Aimée was primarily raised in France by a French-Dominican parentage. As a curious child in Samois-sur-Seine, she would sneak out of her bedroom window to wander into the nearby gypsy encampments filled with those attending the annual Django Reinhardt Festival.
She quickly fell in love with gypsy music and way of life; years later she would sing on street corners with musician friends while traveling across Europe. While in the midst of one such odyssey, she found herself at the Montreux Jazz Festival, where she won first prize in the vocal competition—which included the financing of her first self-produced album.
When Aimée auditioned for the French version of American Idol, she became a finalist. Informed she would have to sing only what she was told, her gypsy spirit rebelled—and in what was a cause célèbre she walked from the competition. She now happily tours the world with her band as well as in a duo setting with Brazilian guitarist Diego Figueiredo. Aimée's talents also recently caught the attention of Stephen Sondheim, who cast her in an Encores Special Presentation starring Bernadette Peters at New York City's City Center in November 2013. Said the New York Daily News, "Aimée is the revelation. This French jazz singer's voice has so much character that all her songs fly."
In August 2014, The New York Times referred to Aimée's latest release "It's a Good Day" as "a bravura turn, presented with a smile."

Hello friends and fans and hopefully soon-to-be patrons!
If you like my music and want to help me make more, please consider giving me a dollar (or more!) per song or video that I upload! You will become my patron and will receive all kinds of special rewards (see below) in exchange, as well as access to my patron-only Activity feed where I will post exclusive demos, out-takes and converse with you to hear your suggestions as well as answer your questions.
About me: I am a professional singer living in Brooklyn. I was born and grew up in France, and my mother is from the Dominican Republic so I sing in all three languages. I have made a career in jazz (on of my favorite things about jazz is improvisation!) and have put out over 7 records, my latest one being "It's a Good Day" (video below!). I'm on the road performing a lot and sometimes it's hard to find the energy and fuel to compose and arrange more. Im trying to find resources to be able to create on a regular basis so I can put material together for my next album.
My goal is to make more music and more videos to go along. But being creative costs time and money (gear, studios, hire professionals...).
Thanks to Patreon, and YOU, I hope I will be able to raise the proper funds to make REALLY GOOD music videos for all of you to enjoy!
I imagine you have many questions about what becoming a patron means.
Click HERE and find out all there is to know, but mainly, know that I won't go over 2 or 3 videos a month, and you can stop donating at any moment, as well as set a maximum pledge limit.
All in all it's very easy. Just enter the amount you'd like to give and then click on the "Become a Patron" button!
I can't wait to get creative with you!
