SONGWRITER ACTIVITY

ole Writers Rock the Soundtrack of Top Grossing German Film, Hanni und Nanni

ole writers Justin Forsley, Shiloh and Tebey are involved in four cuts from the soundtrack of the recently-released German film Hanni und Nanni, which was second in box office receipts in its first week. The movie was inspired by the Enid Blyton tale of the adventures of twin sisters at a British boarding school.

Tebey met Alex Geringas, who composed the soundtrack for the film, while attending the ole/BMG Rights Management's co-presented Euro songcamp held in Berlin in October of 2009. The collaboration, with the addition of songwriter/producer Erik Nyholm, produced the song "Us Against the World," which was recorded by The Veronicas and appears on the Hanni und Nanni film soundtrack.

"Shiloh and I both went to Germany for four days specifically to work with Alex Geringas and Yo-Yo - his actual name is Joachim Schluter," recalls Justin Forsley. "It was a great opportunity to work with Alex and it turned out great."

The quartet of Forsley, Shiloh, Geringas and Schluter are responsible for the songs "Miles Away," performed by Shiloh; "Wild Side," recorded by The Veronicas; and the first single/video, "Here with You" (Roadrunner Records), performed by The Black Sheep, the four-piece all female group from Germany.
