Dubai based Pop-Singer Therése Neaimé has asked everybody in the UAE to be part of her newest music video. “My new song “Today is a Holiday” is a tribute to this great country we all live in – and I want as many people to be part of my video as possible”, says Therése. “The video will be released shortly before the 40th National Day and is to celebrate the variety of the UAE”, says Therése: “I hope this will be one of the party songs for the 40th anniversary in December.”

Therése and the film production company GTV have launched an online campaign and asked the audience to send in short videos of their very own “UAE moment”. Therése: “This could be from a lazy afternoon at the beach, an adventure in the desert, a surf on the kite, a barbeque with family, or children from 5 different nations simply playing together – any moment that makes the country we live in so special.”

The videos will be integrated into the music clip by the producers, from all participants winners will be drawn for an i-Pad and two tickets to Therése’s VIP launch party of her new album “Stronger”.

“It is the first time the content of a music video will be created by the audience”, says producer Tewe Pannier, the head of GTV film production in Media City. “We are hoping for a few hundred entries and are sure this will create a very strong, authentic, lively video.”

To be part of the video, users simply have to go on the Facebook page of Therése Neaimé and click for “contest”.

After having finalized her new album “STRONGER”, Therése is getting ready for a four-month stay in Dubai this fall. -“We have taken the decision to release my new album first in the Middle East since some songs have strong Arabic flavor”, Therése said, determined to fill the coming months with live performances, public appearances and many exciting moments.

Taking a break from public appearances and live peformances, Therése Neaimé has been busy with studio work for the past weeks. The final song for her soon-to-be released second album is taking shape: “TODAY IS A HOLIDAY ” is a cross-over between Western Pop and Arabic rhythms, with Therése singing part of the song in Arabic!

Therése has also been closely monitoring and directing the design of the 24-page booklet for her second album. The title of the album, “STRONGER”, a long kept secret, has also been revealed.

-“I really feel that this album reflects my journey through both music and life: I also believe I have grown stronger over the years, becoming more experienced and developed further in many ways – also thanks to the wonderful people supporting me on this journey which all helped me to believe in myself”, Neaimé said.

Therése Neaimé will be traveling to Berlin at the end of this week for meetings with business partners from the music industry and a performance in cooperation with German electronics media giant “MEDIAMARKT”.

On Saturday afternoon, April 9, Therése will be performing as special guest at “Das Schloss” in Berlin-Steglitz during an event called “Kaffeewelten”. Neaimé will be presenting selected songs from her first and upcoming second album and will hold an autograph session following the performance.

Therése’s single “ALL I THINK ABOUT IS YOU” is still going strong on German radio. It was released in Germany/Austria/Switzerland in October 2010 by Suonix/Redange and distributed in Germany by Rough Trade Germany GmbH.
