BIO The Dancer from Detroit Marlo Dell’Antonio is a Modern Dancer and Performance Artist from Detroit, Michigan. Maintaining a natural ability to dislocate her shoulder blades from an early age has given Marlo Movement a raw edge and intensity, normally reserved for Vogue Femme. As a Dancer, her classical training has been heavily rooted in Laban Movement Analysis, Bartenieff Fundamentals and German expressionist dance (Mary Wigman, Pina Bausch). Contemporary influences also include Hip-Hop, Jazz, Dancehall and Tap. As a Choreographer, she has been performing her own works and commissioned projects since 2005. Most recently, returning from Basel, Switzerland this past April 2012, from a performance with the David P. France Dance Company. For the past six years, Marlo has had the opportunity to work as a published Fashion and Fine-Art (Figure) Model for multiple Photographers, Stylists and Makeup Artists in Detroit, Los Angeles, New York and Basel. Her ability to transform into a new character through every image quickly gained her the attention of Film Directors in New York and LA. Over the past three years she has starred as an Actress in various short films, including two horror films. She continues to pursue Acting and is currently seeking bi-costal agency representation for Film/TV work. While living in New York, Marlo began writing lyrics as a new form of dance expression. In 2009 an independent music label from Detroit (III World’s) heard one of her songs titled “The New Black” and partnered with her to release it as a single. Since then, Marlo has been writing and seeking out producers to record demos. Of which, most recently, veteran producer Kaptain K. and Jazz Pianist Henry Jeria (Lifted Crew) on the track “New York Nights” has been getting great reviews among the dancer community in NY. While heavily influenced by the early sounds of New Wave, eighties disco and pop-rock, Marlo’s songs all convey one simple element: The Need To Dance. Both, for her and the listener. Her dance training has developed a rhythmic ear that comes through in her performance and lyrics. As she states: “I continue to teach myself music theory for my voice. I can sit at the piano and hear the music but, I can’t play it. When I was a kid, it was piano or dance; my family couldn’t afford both. So, my mother decided I should take dance because I was too shy. She put me in an all-black dance academy where I was the only white girl for five years. (I quickly became comfortable with standing out.) While I’m writing, I hear music in my head, but I’m more focused on the lyrics and the rhythm. That’s one thing I love about rap and hip-hop: the structure. I can hear up to six rhythms layered on top of each other in my head and structure movement around them for six bodies in a show. Music visualization, as coined by early Modern Dancer Pioneers, is probably my greatest strength as a performer. So, at the end of the day, I guess no one wants to see me play the piano. They want to see me dance and sing what’s on my mind.” In Fall 2012, Marlo and her Detroit Team are preparing to create a music video for “The New Black” in Michigan. Still dedicated to the study of motion, Marlo’s kinetic eye takes precedence over any project. Through incorporating her Dance and Acting skills into an intense short (music) film, coupled with a live show in New York, Marlo plans to gain the attention of investors in Detroit or New York, to create and release a full 7-track Pop/Dance EP by December 2012. Marlo currently resides in New York, while frequently visiting Detroit for work. She holds a BA in Theatre and a Specialization in Choreography & Directing from Michigan State University. She is an Associate Member of the SSDC and currently studying for her Intermediate Certification in Labanotation from the Dance Notation Bureau. MEASUREMENTS Height: 5’6″ Weight: 102 lbs.

Chris Lea aka“Sho Smoove”, one half of the rap duo “SmooveJonra” was born and raised in the Greensboro/High Point, NC area. Staying locally, he attended the University of North Carolina at Greensboro, where he developed the love of music and entertainment as a whole. Majoring in communication studies and eventually hosting a radio show on the schools radio station was his start into the music industry. His local radio show landed him an internship at the radio station 102 JAMZ where he was hired a year later. It wasn’t until 2008 that Sho decided he wanted to create music. In 2009 his hobby turned into something a lot more serious when he sparked up a friendship with “Jonra,” the second half of “SmooveJonra”. At that point, they both decided that creating music together was more beneficial than doing it solo. Jon Southall, aka “Jonra” is a DC native who comes from a rich musical background. His talent runs all thru his blood with his father being a musician, his mother and sister being singers as well as his grandmother who was signed to Mercury Records in the 60s. Jonra found his way to Greensboro, NC by way of a basketball scholarship to Greensboro College where he developed a desire to begin producing music. . He initially started producing beats for his sister so that she could start up her music career and during this process he realized he wanted to embark on the same path. Once “SmooveJonra” was formed the guys jumped right into action working on their first project “Shocker” which released July 11, 2011. Sho and Jonra chose the name “Shocker” because they wanted people to be shocked by their music and musical abilities. “SmooveJonra” isn’t just the name of a group, it’s a brand. The guys also have other projects going on like club promotion, a team of models, and a clothing line called Mocha Soul. The talents of Sho and Jonra don’t stop there either; the entire “Shocker” mixtape was self-written and produced by Jonra and Magnedo7, a writer and producer out of Winston Salem, NC who has worked with artists such as Eminem, Jim Jones, Curren$y and Ludacris. SmooveJonra is just getting their feet wet in the music business, but are willing to work hard and have a strong desire to climb to the top!
