New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Allure Media Entertainment) KAJ Brothers, Orlando's emerging pop trio releases their debut single and video. The group's rendition of the classic hit song, "Hello," written by iconic superstar Lionel Richie, integrates its own orchestral elements and full-bodied abundant harmonies in such a way as to elevate this classic song to new levels.
The trio, all of whom are multilingual and high achievers are based in Orlando, Florida. They consist of Kyle Craichy (vocals, piano, guitar, and dance), Austin Craichy (vocals, piano, guitar, drums, and dance), and Johnny Atys (vocals and dance champion). Kyle and Austin were born and raised in Tampa, Florida, while Johnny is from Paris, France.
KAJ Brother's genre is Pop/R&B with a classical twist with various musical influences that are not necessarily genre-specific.

The debut single, "Hello," was produced by legendary music producer, Bryan Lenox, and was recorded in Nashville. Lenox is responsible for 51 #1 hit tunes and has been nominated for twelve Grammys, with one win. He has worked top artists including Elton John, Bruce Springsteen, and
Michael Bolton just to name a few. The high-end music video for "
Hello" was produced and directed by Saylors Brothers Entertainment. Projects produced by the Saylors include an exclusive shoot on the designers of Ferrari (Pininfarina headquarters, Italy), "An Animated Life" with Phil Roman (producer of "The Simpsons" and "Garfield"), "
Dreamland" with Jonathan Breck (Star of "Jeepers Creepers"), and "MTV's Most Expensive
Music Videos" (launched the single to #1 on the Billboard charts) by artists such as Master P, Snoop Dogg, and Mystikal.
All three of the group members are vocally trained by long-time producer and vocal coach Gerry Williams of Orlando. For over 20 years he has produced albums and demos for his students that have led them to flourishing careers in the music industry. Among whom are Grammy™ nominee and Dove Award winner
Francesca Battistelli, and Actress/Singer (Vampire Diaries) Candice Acolla. He has also remixed music for
Celine Dion, Jennifer Lopez, and Justin Timberlake. Williams' work with major record labels (Warner Bros., Universal, Atlantic, and Sony) is another highlight of his career.
