LA and Philly based producers Brahm Genzlinger & Maxfield Gast create the musical duo Diamond St.
Featuring various artist spotlights.
Initially meeting at Temple University’s Esther Boyer School of Music, Brahm and Maxfield were both intertwined in the Philadelphia music scene. Many years later, after being reconnected through a mutual friend, the two decided to put their similarly creative minds together and begin the writing process. After the summer of 2017 the musical duo, now known as Diamond St., had put together a solid collection of original music, but was lacking a lead vocalist. They decided to tap into Philadelphia’s rich pool of talented singers and joined forces with Nicole Tranquillo and Reade McCardell to finish bringing these two new EP’s to life.
Brahm Genzlinger:
Growing up and cutting his teeth in the Philadelphia music scene as a freelance producer and musician, Brahm Genzlinger's influence can be felt throughout the city's rich culture of original music. As an engineer, producer and seasoned touring musician, Brahm now splits his time between coasts, affiliated with Philadelphia's Milkboy Studio and LA's Redstar Studio, and has worked with artists including The Hardwork Movement, Kenty Love, Pomplamoose and Ty Dolla $ign.
