How
Can You Mend a Broken Heart? Making New Music is
Helping Emme Lentino Heal from the Untimely Loss
of Husband Tony
Two
years ago
the domain industry prematurely lost
one of its most successful
entrepreneurs when TonyLentino
- the founder of registrar OnlyDomains.com
- left
us at the age of 42
after a 15-month battle with cancer.
Many of our readers also know Tony's
lovely wife, Emme, a long
time friend who I first met over a
decade ago when she came into the
domain business (where she later met
Tony) as a representative of a
domain parking company called Klickerz.
While Emme knows domains her real
passion has always been
singing (in fact I watched her
sing with Howard Neu at a
social event during the 2007
T.R.A.F.F.I.C. conference in New
York City).
Even
before domains, Emme had released an
independent music CD and
performing was never far from her
mind, even while she had two
beautiful daughters with Tony
that are the apples of her eye. Emme
has
been healing since the
Emme
Lentino
loss of her
husband and one thing has helped her
in that recovery process -
pouring her
heart and soul into new music that
she has now released and is
performing at venues in front of
appreciative audiences around the
world. There are many signs that
this extraordinarily talented artist
is on the verge of a major
breakout.
The
centerpiece of Emme's new work is an EP
called The
Oxygen Collection
that is getting airplay in
many major markets around
the world. The amazing thing
about this project is that
Emme has dome all of it
from writing, performing,
producing to distributing
her mesmerizing recordings
and videos. Emme told us,
"I am an indie unsigned
singer/songwriter who writes
and performs Pop rock, Soul
and Americana music. It’s
really the message in
my music that is the reason
I am sometimes be found
pushing myself uphill! In a
world where you can hear
“no, or not yet, or you
don’t fit in...”. I say,
I dare ya! Let’s do
this! Let’s make
the impossible possible."
"I
want to uplift,
empower, show
kindness and love and
most of all hope
to the masses. I am
on a mission to
bring a movement of
hope to the world.
Because I believe
that no matter what
we face, we can
survive, thrive and
help others. It is
in helping others
that we find
purpose and identity.
So much of our time
can be concentrated
on what we are in at
the moment. But when
we can step out, and
share our hearts and
lend an ear to
others, volunteer
and spend time with
someone who needs
us- we suddenly feel
energized!
There are moments
everyday when we can
touch just one
persons journey and
make a difference in
their life."
:I
would love to share
my music with as
many people as
possible. As one
person, without the
endorsement of a
record label, I
rely on friends and
family and those
who connect with
my message to
like, share and
follow! So if
you’re on social
Emme
Lentino on stage.
media: Twitter,
Instagram,
Facebook,
Youtube
- I would really
appreciate your
support! Also,
my music is available
on all platforms so
whether you use Spotify,
iTunes, etc.,
please add Emme
to your playlist!
It’s all
algorithms- so the
more adds and likes
and follows the more
people hear the
music."
"I
feel so strongly that I am
doing exactly what Tony
wanted. To sing my heart
out and to encourage others
to do the same!
Wishing everyone hugs and
peace and joy.
I will always remember
the kindness and support of
my domain community.
Thank you for being there
for us!
Just
as I was getting read to
post this article I got an
another exciting note from
Emme. Her manager just
notified her that she has
been invited to perform in January
2019 at the Toyota
Country Music Festival
Tamworth in
Australia! "It is
such an honor and I’ll be
announcing details of this
as I learn more," Emme
said. She will also be
releasing a new Christmas
EP in a couple of weeks
that will be distributed by
MGM. It will feature an
original Christmas song that
Emme co-wrote in Los Angeles
at the Paramount
Recording Studios.
They
say "seeing is
believing" so I will
leave you with a brand new
video that Emme just
released for her inspiring
song "Seasons of
Life" that
will show you exactly why
her legion of fans is growing
so quickly!
