One comes from Ireland, the other from the USA. Both are blessed with spectacular voices and both produce sophisticated modern pop songs: lively and toe-tapping. Rea Garvey grew up in Ireland. In 1998 he moved to Germany and formed the band Reamonn. Since 2010 he has been performing as a solo artist and regularly scores chart hits like «Pride» and «Neon». A singer, song-writer and producer, he is also actively involved in charitable work for those affected by poverty and war. As a child, Ray Dalton was a member of a choir. Later he joined the famous «Total Experience Gospel Choir» and toured the world with them. This was followed by important collaborations with other artists like Macklemore, which culminated in a chart-topping world hit. That’s because Ray Dalton knows how to produce and stage a good song: «In My Bones», for example, was the most-played title in Germany in 2020.
