ole/tanjola's Shiloh and Justin Forsley Take a Walk on the Wild Side for Hanni und Nanni

ole/tanjola writers Shiloh and Justin Forsley have a number of co-writes in the German film Hanni und Nanni, which is set for a June 17th release in Germany. Their musical contribution includes "Wild Side", cut by The Black Sheep (Roadrunner Germany), and "Here with You". The film was inspired by The Twins at St. Clare's, one in a series of six books about a boarding school of that name by British children's author Enid Blyton; and the songs were written as part of ole/BMG Rights Management's co-presented Euro songcamp held in Berlin.

Shiloh, a JUNO Awards nominee as New Artist of the Year, participated in a number of writing sessions in Toronto following a western Canada trip where she spent time in Vancouver writing with Brian Howes, David Hodges and the duo HipJoint before performing to thousands of enthusiastic fans at the Bounce Birthday Bash concert in Edmonton with old tour-mates, Marianas Trench. While in Vancouver during the Olympics, she also took part in the Young Artists for Haiti best-selling recording "Wavin' Flag," produced by Bob Ezrin at Bryan Adams' Warehouse Studio, which also featured the song's writer K'Naan, Avril Lavigne, Nelly Furtado, Sam Roberts, Justin Bieber and Drake, among others. ET Canada ran a piece on Shiloh on April 14th shortly before she headed for St. John's, Newfoundland for the JUNO festivities where she participated in JUNO FanFare. As a fashion aside, she was styled for the gala event by Evan Biddell, the season one winner of Project Runway.

Justin Forsley has just returned from a two-week writing stint in Barbados with fellow ole/tanjola writer Rupert Gayle where they worked with a number of West Indian artists. Gayle was a JUNO nominee in the category of Dance Recording of the Year for his co-write on "Runnin' (Urban Mix)" by Doman & Gooding featuring Dru & Lincoln. 

tanjola (Ivan Berry/Daniel Mekinda) is once again guiding the career of Canadian JUNO Award-winning singer/songwriter and actress Keisha Chanté.  Ivan Berry launched Chantй's career when she was 14 years old and Berry, who once held the title at ole of Senior Partner International, was an executive at BMG Music Canada.
