Collaborations between artists, composers and music producers can bring out new ideas, flavours and new sounds. Most, I believe are accepted by the hearers and some are not because they just don’t sound right, the chemistry isn’t happening. A collaboration that did work was when Genevieve Sylva, an urban UK artist (I’ve worked with and still working with) sang with the amazing MOBO, Mercury, Brit Award winning vocal artist Beverley Knight MBE at a wedding. The person behind this was drummer/musical director Carl McGregor.
Carl has set up a prison ministry in Wolverhampton, which has been going for a number of years now and his group Project 21 would normally minister/perform to the young offenders. Beverley Knight was the guest vocalist, as they have a long-standing friendship and Genevieve was singing backing vocals. The songs they did were, Greatest day of my life, Ain’t nobody and My life is in your hands. On this occasion Bev was a surprise guest at her friends wedding and collaborated with Project 21 along with Genevieve Sylva and performed her set. The performance was electric and a great surprise to the newly weds.
Genevieve said, “it was a great experience and a privilege singing with Bev”. Sounds like this collaboration worked well and there have been many that bring freshness to the performance when done well. Also, when you do perform with an artist of this prestige, it encourages you to raise your standard or push yourself that bit more so you can compliment/bounce off each other and make it a memorable experience
