Go Getters Entertainment Two projects on the street team

Project 1:

EAZY TERRESTIAL

Eazy Terrestrial aka EZT or ET the Space God; an international Hip Hop recording artist hailing from Southern California, Jamaica and Vancouver treating listeners to his unique musical talents. Being able to bring enough style and versatility to fill a room; you can expect a bold, confident, out of the box, out of this world artist who is able to bring that sought after, turn up, hard hitting, raw energy that get’s people hyped. His natural talent for rocking crowds and killing microphones has him performing across the globe from Southern Cali to Europe, Central America and Canada. EZT's music provides a lasting impression of a trippy space god VS unreformed hustler, leaving fans wanting more. Most of his time is spent recording on the West Coast, collaborating with artists and producers worldwide while making his mark in Vancouver and LA alongside Gremlin Gang releasing “Whistle While You Work” and “Gremlin Gang Breaking And Entering” feat BDay; currently working on his highly anticipated EP “IN MY ZONE” set to be released late summer 2015.

Project 2:

Natalia Pardalis

Fresh. Expressive. Unexpected. Natalia’s mother once taught her, “No musical mistake is a mistake, but rather a journey to create beautiful music”. The singer, songwriter, pianist, and musical educator has emerged from the cocoon of the classical world to reach diverse audiences with her unique story and sound.

Taking inspiration from such distinctive artists as Dean Martin, Ella Fitzgerald, Judy Garland, Nina Simone and a touch of Mozart, Natalia blends her most powerful influences to create a new fusion of sound and soul. She delivers a bold take on the familiar sounds of classical, jazz, the standards, and Greek folk music. Her debut album Life, released to iTunes in December of 2011, is full of soul-tinged songs that are set to resonate with all who hear them. Produced by Juno award winning engineer, Rob Shallcross, the album contains a variety of sounds, instruments, and guest vocals. Anchored together by her incredible voice and impressive piano skills, Natalia takes the listeners on a personal exploration of her life throughout the past 10 years. As well as graduating from several musical training programs in both performance and arts education, Natalia has just completed her Bachelor of Performing Arts degree (Capilano University, Douglas College, Langara College and Vancouver Community College) - the first of its kind in Canada. In June 2013, Natalia completed the first level of the ARCT diploma with honours from the Royal Conservatory of Music. Natalia’s vast performance experiences include Trinity Western University’s gigs with Vancouver Chamber Choir and Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, which she lends experience and knowledge to aspiring artists. Having studied with the best of the best, Natalia’s teachers included Ron Moir, Ay Lang Wang, Chad Louwerse, Ingrid Suderman, jazz sensation Dee Daniels, and international opera singer Joseph Store. Natalia is an award-winning composer. Last year, Natalia along with a group of friends won three awards (Critic's Choice, People's Choice, and Social Media Award) from the Greek American Foundation's 24 hour Short Film Festival for their film O Tharraleos. To make deadlines, Natalia had composed, performed and recorded the score in only 24 hours. As they say, "the rest is history." http://youtu.be/jQoXiNpmN8k Natalia is currently working on an EP about fairy tales. The first single, Cup of Tea, was released on June 5th! Jazz with a touch of Greece Vintage-inspired! Welcome to the world of Natalia Pardalis!

Street Team:

-­‐ Sent out invites for concerts

-­‐ Handout flyers for single release “Cup of Tea”

-­‐ As Natalia has a large fan base in British Columbia, we created a social media campaign (mostly through connecting with people on Facebook and twitter) to have "Cup of Tea" to be played on the Beat 94.5 (now Virgin Radio). The request were so tremendous that not only did the Beat email Natalia to ask her to tell her fans to stop calling in as her song did not fit their station but as well the disc jockeys discussed live on the air asking "who is this girl?
