The founder and President of the Academy of the Arts, Scott received a PhD from Julliard and has worked with many of today's most successful "superstar" singers.

Christian Teele, Drummer |
|
Almost always our choice for a live drummer, Christian is truly a virtuoso of incomparable versatility and skill. He's one of those very rare musicians we've "discovered" that has such a vast musical vocabulary he never seems to repeat himself, session after session after session. He keeps us guessing but always plays whatever makes the song come to life in ways we didn't think possible. Lately he's gotten into the realm of programming and integrating technology into his drumming as well. Christian is an important key to the "InnerCircle."

Rebecca Mesple, Demo Consultant, Singer, Songwriter
|
|
Recognize the last name? Yes, Rebecca is married to Creative Director Taylor Mesple, and she just became a new Mom 3 months ago. Rebecca is a fantastic singer/songwriter and because of this she is the perfect point of contact between all the musicians out there (whoops, that's "y'all" in Nashville) and our company! Her ability to communicate and articulate options, goals and enthusiasm for a demo is unbeatable. She knows first hand what it is to write a song, record that song and has worked with musicians of all skill levels and experience. Rebecca is a huge part of the vision, direction and end result with each demo she oversees. We couldn't do this without her, and we soooooo welcome her talent, wisdom and passion here in the "InnerCircle."

Murphy the Wonder Dog,
Territorial Barking, Food Spill Cleanup, Affectionate One
|
|
Yes, this is our mascot of sorts for the creative process here at InnerCircle. The man behind the scenes, the dog behind the woman behind the man behind the company, or something, the security alarm for the car, the four legged song attendant, the muse behind such songs as "the dogs of war" and a half-sibling to Rebecca's new daughter. He keeps us reminded that you sometimes have to take time to play, to eat, and to sleep--the 3 things he does best.
