Music producer, Dapo (Justin Bieber, John Legend, Brandy, David Archuleta) recently invited some friends to his studio and created his first Holiday album titled, “Dapo & Friends Christmas“. Most producers with a work ethic like Dapo’s know that making time for a project like this can be extremely challenging – but after taking a listen to entire album, it is certain his dedication turned out to be very rewarding.
The album is made of of 9 Christmas classics and one original, all produced & arranged by Dapo. “Dapo & Friends Christmas” features the vocal talent of friends: Max Schneider, Stacy Barthe, David Archuleta, Gaby Ramirez, Ginny Blackmore, Abraham McDonald, Nikki Flores, TC, Scotty Granger, and a jazz instrumental with himself (on multiple instruments) and with bassist, Robert “Bubby” Lewis.
Dapo personally considers this project very special and plans to take it a step further next year with “Dapo & Friends Christmas: Volume 2” followed up by hosting a Live Show that will benefit those in need during the Holiday Season. Enjoy!

Dapo with the amazing Siedah Garrett!!! Dapo on working with Siedah, “It is an honor for me to work with Siedah! Not only is she an incredible person and SPIRIT … she is also the co-writer behind Michael Jackson’s “Man In The Mirror” and sang with Michael in the duet, “I Just Can’t Stop Loving You”. I get so inspired every time she comes to the studio! She reminds me of why I wanted to be a songwriter and producer in the first place.”
