In 2011, Bwarie released his debut studio album titled Nothin’ But Love with select tracks featuring renown Latin percussionist Paulinho da Costa and the legendary guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli. Found across all streamers and played on Siriusly Sinatra on siriusXM radio, fans across the world helped lift the debut traditional pop album onto the iTunes charts.
His follow-up album The Good Stuff unifies multiple decades and genres of American songwriting. “Redefining the American Songbook” was etched in the cover art, and once again the fans brought attention to the album and Bwarie’s clear, expressive vocals.
His EP for the Holiday season, A Little Christmas, delivers the perfect selection of original song, reinvented classics, and powerful anthems.
Bwarie was commissioned to record the song “M-O-T-H-E-R” by director Garry Marshall for the film Mother’s Day. It was recorded at the Power Station in New York City.
His latest album, Lucky 13, is Bwarie’s captivating interpretation of 100 years of exceptional songwriting in 13 songs and a special bonus song “How Lucky Am I” written by Bwarie and Rachael Lawrence. This powerhouse recording is Bwarie’s modern expression of songs from Rodgers & Hart to Diane Warren, and from Hoagie Carmichael to Meghan Trainor. The collection includes songs from the American songbook, iconic soundtrack hits from film, and pop selections that connect decades of music with Bwarie’s vocal style. Arranged and orchestrated by producer Charles Calello, a 30-piece orchestra is the jumping off point for Bwarie’s voice that has been likened to the various colors of Chet Baker, Michael Bublé, George Michael and Sinatra.
Years in the making, Lucky 13 was recorded at EastWest Studios in Hollywood, CA, Studio City Sound in Studio City, CA, and Power Station Recording Studios in Pompano Beach, FL. It was mastered by Dale Becker (GRAMMY nominee and Latin GRAMMY winner) of Becker Mastering in Pasadena, CA.
