Although the two have not met, all communication has been via the network. The fact that they found each other is mostly due to chance. Maini had first contact with another producer but felt that he did not really fit. Then he instead talked about Aubrey Whitfeld, who worked with artists like Simon Webbe from the group Blue, Kelly Clarkson, Soul II Soul and more.

– She has the ability to create an energetic, popping and driving sound. It is also noticeable that she is fond of her artists. She coaches and gives tips in an educational way.

The collaboration gave added flavor and Maini Sorri was happy to pick up the thread with Aubrey Whitfeld again. But first, “Through Teary Eyes” will be launched. Already she has received a receipt that it works. Earlier this year, she received an invitation to participate in the international World Songwriting Awards competition. She did not win but got the epithet “top finalist”. In addition, award-winning producer Kutayden from Turkey has made a video for the song.

– This evening, the song premiered at the radio show “Female Fronted Rock and Metal Show” in New York. Then I attended myself and chatted with listeners and the presenter, says Maini Sorri.
