Bollywood singer Thomson Andrews goes international

MUMBAI: Thomson Andrews, who recently lent his voice as additional vocalist for ‘Rangoon’, has released his International pop-funk single ‘I Got Your Money’ on 15 March 2017.

Thomson who has sung, composed, and written the song has left no stone unturned to produce exactly what he wanted. The Music is produced by Candy D’Souza and has India’s best musicians playing on it including Mohini Dey on bass, Nyzel D’mila on guitars and Lindsay D’mello on drums. The song was dubbed by sound engineer Chester Misquitta at Plugging Studios and is mixed and mastered by Abhishek Ghatak.

The music video of 'I Got Your Money' was shot at prime locations in Los Angeles, the USA at places like Hollywood Hills, Hollywood Blvd (Walk of fame), Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive, Santa Monica Pier and Santa Monica Beach.

Conceptualised and directed by Hollywood-based director Stephen Shadrach, the music video highlights costumes, which were styled by La Maison De Fashion and stylist Angelina Pitt. She has styled Jason Derulo, R.Kelly, Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga, Nicky Minaj, Tyra banks, Kevin Hart, Paris Hilton, Vogue Magazine, GQ Magazine, Empire Show among others in the past.

Commenting on the same, Thomson says, "This song was composed by me in early 2014, during a Mumbai local train journey I was on, when a thought just crossed my mind and I started humming a melody (Now the main hook/chorus). I wrote the chorus and over a few days I sat at my desk at home and ideated a fun story around it. I wrote this song narrating a guy’s positive breakup story. The story is about a boy learning about another man in his love interest’s life. He moves away maturely as he believes he deserves someone better than her.”

Thomson has previously sung songs like 'Bach Ke Bakshi' from 'Detective Byomkesh Bakshi', 'Shehar Mera' from 'One By Two' and 'Rumani' from the movie 'Akaash Vani' and also has recently dubbed for Pritam on the BGM of SRK starrer ‘Raees’.

"After I finished composing the entire lyric of the song, I performed the song at many of my Indie Live concerts across India and gained a lot of great feedbacks. The feedbacks motivated me to record it and create a single. As a result, I began creation of the track with few close musician friends, who are also the best from the Indian music industry, along with Candy D’Souza. My producer envisioned the song with me till its final stage and after several alterations to the structure and composition we have created a beautiful sound," added Thomson.

The song will soon be available on iTunes and 700 other digital music platforms in India too. The video will be aired soon on 9XO, VH1 and other channels in India and BBC Asian Network Radio in the UK will air the song their network as Top Track of the Week as confirmed already.
