When you have the soul of an artist, every journey becomes a trigger for limitless creation. Ryan Leslie spent 4 days this summer with Parmigiani Fleurier and visited the Manufacture of the luxury watchmaker. This was long enough for the Grammy-nominated recording artist and producer to be inspired to brew up new songs in an unprecedented artistic concept celebrating the brand partnership. Entitled the “Fleurier Flows” EP, this musical compilation is comprised of three elements that we are proud to present:
MUSIC: Four new original recordings, written, composed and performed by Ryan Leslie – “Forever My Love”, “First Place”, “Thankful” and “Gorgeous” are available on all streaming platforms as of Friday, January 18, 2019. Leslie served as executive producer as well, working closely with his team to oversee the creative process from inception to completion.
FILM: “Forever My Love” is the lead music video release. It stages a love story that stands the test of time and stars international model and fine artist Jenaye Noah, who also designed the EP’s cover art. The video was shot in Miami. Two more videos offer a look into Leslie’s creative process while making the records. These releases are available on social media channels (YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram).
LIVE EVENTS & APPEARANCES: The records will be performed with Leslie’s live band during concerts. The band premiered “Forever My Love” last November, a fitting finale to the Fleurier Flows Tour in Munich, Germany. Parmigiani Fleurier feels privileged to collaborate with such a talented, versatile Friend of the Brand. Ryan Leslie is both a creative artist and a visionary Entrepreneur, having launched his company SuperPhone® in 2016, a full-fledged CRM for quick messaging.
