Year in Review We did it! We officially changed our name to ODDUA AUDIO! Changing our brand name from ODDUA Publishing LLC to ODDUA AUDIO LLC is more congruent with the digital audio products that we produce, and will hopefully give people a more accurate view of what we do.  We are excited to announce a new production partnership with Soul Sparks Press, a new publishing company founded by one of ODDUA’s authors, Deepika Sandhu.  We welcomed the new addition to the ODDUA AUDIO family, a new (to us) Yamaha Baby Grand Piano! It’s a little bitter sweet how this beautiful instrument came to us, as we have inherited it from our dear colleague and play auntie, the late Gail Dobson, who recently passed this April.  ODDUA AUDIO was presented with the “Startup of the Year” Award, at the 21st Annual Oakland African American Chamber of Commerce’s Awards Luncheon  First Music Album Recorded in the Hummingbird Hut. We had The Faultline Trio in the studio to record their first album. Scott Larson, of TriTone Productions, engineered the sessions, and the album is scheduled to be released in late Spring of 2025. Not only is this Faultline’s first album recorded of original music, but also the first Neo Soul/Jazz album to be recorded in the Hummingbird Hut Recording Studio.  Allegra Bandy featured on “The Mammahood” Blog. Allegra was interviewed by Heather Anderson, the founder of The Mamahood, and THE CLUB.The Mammahood “is where we mamas go to lift each other up and be supported ourselves."  Our newly built studio, The Hummingbird Hut is in full recording swing! New Team Member: Daryl! Welcome Daryl to the ODDUA AUDIO Family! We're thrilled to introduce the newest addition to our team, Daryl, hailing all the way from the vibrant Philippines! As our social media and marketing maestro, Daryl brings not just expertise but also an infectious passion for storytelling and connecting with people. A self-declared globetrotter, Daryl has a knack for diving headfirst into diverse cultures, savoring unique experiences, and capturing them all on his ever-growing YouTube travel vlog. Whether it's chasing sunsets, exploring bustling cityscapes, or savoring local delicacies, Daryl thrives on meeting people from all walks of life—believing that these connections are the true architects of personal growth. With Daryl on board, expect ODDUA AUDIO's social media to resonate with new energy, creativity, and stories that inspire. Let's give him a warm welcome as he embarks on this exciting journey with us! Note from Allegra : Happy Holidays As this year comes to a close, I am amazed at what we have accomplished. And this is just the beginning! I am excited to move forward with this new studio, with new audiobooks on the horizon, and hopefully some fun creative vocal projects for myself. Winter is an ideal time for going within, for reflection, and planning. I'm hoping to be able to take some time for that, and maybe even write some music while it's raining and storming out. Taking deep breaths as we move into this next year, and I am committed to being really kind and compassionate to myself, so that I can share the best of myself with the world. I hope you do too. Thank you so much for reading our newsletter, and please reach out. I want to stay in your loop too! Hope you have a beautiful holiday season, and see you next year!
