Gail and Tommy have over 15 songwriting awards together- heck, we stopped counting!

We are so happy for Tommy's recent success as powerhouse Music Producer for The Warblers hits on the unstoppable force that is GLEE. Tommy's first song for GLEE, (a cover of Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream") went to NUMBER ONE

(Glee's biggest song to date) on Billboard's Digital Downloads chart. That success kept going with 11 other production numbers that all appear on the Dalton Academy Warblers album, which debuted at Number One on Billboard's Soundtracks chart...

selling over 1.3 million copies so far.

Warblers

Way to go, Tommy! There are some more exciting opportunities in the works with Tommy & Sandshifter Music's Gail Vareilles. She and Tommy are working as music producers on new feature films, one of which starred Mickey Rourke & the team is also writing an album for artist Jovi Rockwell! (Jovi has recorded with Bruno Mars, Akon, Flo-Rida, Mims, Ne-Yo, Major Lazer and opened for Sean Kingston on worldwide tours.)  She is the featured singer on Wonderful Thing, No One's Content, Dizzy, Something Good and Baisez-Moi.

"Wonderful Thing" was chosen as the subject of the ASCAP EXPO Music Feedback Panel and it was a Semifinalist in the International Songwriting Competition in TOP 40/Pop!  Industry heavy-hitter Fred Mollin who sat on the review panel called it "a definite hit"!

"Move over Gwen Stefani!" says Suzanne Hilleary of Wacbiz Music about "Wonderful Thing"...
