8. From working with Grammy award winning producer Sandy
Vee (Katy Perry, Rihanna, Britney Spears), to winning
LOGO TV’s New Now Next Awards Brink Of Fame Music
Artist, to being featured in NEW YORK MAGAZINE’s winter
Look Book, and the New York Post’s Page 6 (when Jude
Law was almost caught in a “model mosh-pit” at one of her
shows).
Bella Saona has found herself landing on ELIE TAHARI’s NY
Fashion Week front page, while penning the theme song
for MTV’s HOUSE OF JAZMIN.
Signing to ULTRA RECORDS in 2011 as a solo artist she has had
the opportunity to work with the top producers, and remixers
the EDM world has to offer.
For her it’s all about the Music. The fashion fun and flare, is just
icing on the cake.Bella will also be adding leading lady to that
multi-layered cake when she starts filming her first acting role in
2013 which she will be executive producer on, written and
directed by Robert LA Force (Pop Star 2010) and tentatively
titled “Little Wicked” (After one of Bella’s songs).

9. KB Jones & The Kontraband’s musical style is versatile,
spotlighting each band member’s background. Blanketing
the realms of funk, hip hop, pop, and classic rock; The
Kontraband strives to create an atmosphere of party-filled
fun sprinkled with consciousness.
KB Jones and The Kontraband currently hold a bi-weekly
residency at The National Underground two Thursday’s each
month, hosting #Undergroove, live hip hop open mic featuring a
guest band each week with DJ Julia Gunz keeping beat on the

forms, their releases reflect on the ever evolving pop music
scene.

10. Invisible Garden’s list of influences is uncomfortably wide.
It could be 50’s sitcoms, haunted mermaids, or postmodern architecture; they always seem to find inspiration
in strange places. The result— a refreshing take on
electronic-pop music.
They often aim for the pleasure center, but there is plenty
to unpack in these songs; subtleties that promise a
rewarding experience for the listener who cares to dive
deeper.
http://soundgroove.info/content/massivelyepic2/collaborators/invisible-garden/
Invisible Garden has intentionally made their live set a
completely different experience. They’ve tailored their songs
into a seamless ‘DJ-like’ set, and brought in visuals to mix an
immersive array of ‘stream –of-consciousness’ of visuals.
Their stated goal; “put on a show that’s equal parts artexhibition, and fucking bangin’ dance party.” Well, if that’s the
case, count us in. #letsgo!
