About The Owner

Owner - Manny Mijares One day while sitting with an owner of a label, Manny asked the label guru if he would play him some tracks. After a few plays down the list, Manny squinted his eyebrows, bobbed his head back and forth and insisted, "This is the one!" After what felt like forcing the industry tycoon to email him the track on the spot, Manny rushed home and began to brainstorm just what to do with it. He knew that with his team he could create a great record and now this was an open opportunity. After sending the track to a few of his writers, one idea by a friend of his stuck with him - and he began to write the second verse.

After completing the idea and demoing the recording within a few days, the label was so impressed that they immediately called Manny and offered him a co-publishing deal and major release of the record. The song went on to become the #1 record in all of UK and charted internationally.

Manny is a family Man. He currently lives in a small suburb community located in South Orange County with his wife Cathy and two beautiful girls, Lyric and Lia. Being away from the 'Rat Race,' as he calls it, in the heart of Los Angeles allows him to enjoy the important things in life besides music and entertainment. However, with just a 45-minute car ride to LA he is ready to strike deals and engrave his mark as one of the aspiring entrepreneurs of today.

Manny is also an active member of the Recording Academy who hosts the world famous GRAMMY's.
