Demiere & TJ McCarty ALBUM RELEASE with Triimurtii at Up The Creek Records

Demiere is the ultimate multi-faceted artist. He’s a singer, rapper, songwriter, music producer, bass player, dancer, music video director, podcast host, and natural born entertainer. The only thing he can’t do is show you a bad time. Demiere is at his best when he’s ideating freely, throwing out ideas until he finds one he wants to run with. And once his ideations are solidified he’s going to take you along for the ride. Throughout the track list of People Pleasing, his newest album with TJ McCarty, he’s at his most open and honest while still keeping his vocals playfully original.

Often heard before he’s seen, TJ McCarty’s greatest strength is his voice.

When he’s not commanding attention with his baritone register, he’s up in the stratosphere with his falsetto, emulating his vocal idols Ronald Isley, Maurice White and Phillip Bailey. But don’t let the high notes fool you into thinking he can’t deliver a gritty, labyrinthine rap verse. On his newest album, People Pleasing, he decisively rides the line between singer and rapper, along with his collaborator Demiere, with both artists skillfully pivoting across multiple vocal roles.

Triimurtii is a master of allowing listeners to travel space and time while listening to his works. Ever the workhorse, he’s released nearly 100 songs on digital streaming platforms, and he’s responsible for most of their production, songwriting, engineering and vocal performance. At any given time, he’s working on another song for another project. He’s also responsible for mixing and mastering 6 of the 7 songs on People Pleasing by Demiere and TJ McCarty, and the album is all the better for it.
