MEET CECILY
Cecily is a young vocalist and songwriter from Washington, D.C., making her mark on the music world. Cecily's genre is described as Acoustic Pop Soul because as she says, "It's Acoustic because I like to work with real musicians and real instrumentation. It's Pop because it has crossover appeal, and it's Soul because it gives you that warm, soulful feeling, like back in the day."
Cecily has been influenced by powerful vocalists and songwriters, including Whitney Houston, Lauryn Hill, and Adele. Over a decade of study and performance provides a secure foundation for this seasoned soprano, who now performs with confidence and ease; and as one blogger at a recent performance said, "Cecily's vocal range and stage presence were breathtaking and certainly left the audience wanting more."
Cecily is a 2012 graduate of Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania. She has also studied at the Peabody Institute and Berklee College of Music. She launched her professional career in the Fall of 2012, with the release of her first single, "Too Much," available on iTunes, Amazon, and CDBaby.
She is currently working on completing her first EP, working with Grammy award winning producer and arranger Benjamin Wright, famed songwriter and singer, Vaneese Thomas, and DC rap legend, Tabi Bonney. She is also performing regularly in Washington, D.C., New York City, and other cities on the East Coast.

GET TO KNOW THE DSV GROUP
The DSV Group was founded, created, and established in 1999 by Delta Saint-Vil aka Danielle Noon, CEO-Founder and incorporated on July 27, 2007, based on the ideal of sustaining and growing the Caribbean culture in the DMV area. Since its inception, DSV Group has become a strategic partner and leader in fundraising, sponsoring, financing, and promoting reggae events in the DMV area.
As a silent partner for many years, DSV Group has assisted local promoters with financing reggae concerts and dancehall events. The risks became greater than the rewards as an investor. Therefore, DSV Group successfully co-promoted its first concert event (Capleton Live) in the DMV on Friday, April 27, 2012. Then on Saturday April 27, 2013, DSV Group solely and successfully promoted (Mavado) at the Love Nightclub in Washington, DC and again on Saturday April 26, 2014, DSV Group solely and successfully promoted Mavado and Serani at the Loft Ballroom in Laurel, MD. In addition, DSV Group CEO also produces two annual dancehall events in June and October.
DSV Group CEO has been featured on WPFW 89.3FM and Radio One WKYS 93.9FM as well as various Internet radio stations such as WINDCRadio.com, AblazinRadio.com, and MaddFM.com.
