Today we’d like to introduce you to Rachele Royale.
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
I grew up in the Bay Area (Silicon Valley). My mom owned 3 dance studios with over 2k students ! We had a competitive dance team and most of our company kids were auditioning for tv/film as well. It was a very tumultuous journey after my mom sold the studios. I continued competing, however because of the stress and anxiety in our home life I turned to music as a coping mechanism/ therapy. I was supposed to be a dancer 🙂 but life took me somewhere else. Here’s the Spotify blurb in a nutshell. Just the highlights without the E! True Hollywood stories 😉
Rachele Royale is an independent artist known for her powerhouse vocals and top 40 pop lyrics. She is a Topliner, writer, dancer, director, visionary. Her music has been featured on Sirius XM, 104.3 MYFM, MTV, MTV SOUNDTRACK, VH1, CMT, NFL, NBA, Audience Network and more. Her first album was produced by legend Mutt Lange, and Swedish producer Tony Nilsson. Her pop hit “Tap Dat” has been used all over the world for TV/Film and choreography. Rachele’s single “Last Time” produced by Brandon Sammons, became well known after appearing alongside Travis Mills artist spotlight on MTV. “Last Time” was also submitted to be voted on for a Grammy nom.
Royale released a track titled “In A Minute” produced by Phinisey (mixing mastering engineer for Qveen Herby). Phinisey and Rachele received a placement for a feature film last year. Rachele just recently penned the debut single for TikTok star “Vella” (Sky Without Stars) hitting over one million views on YouTube in the first week.
Royale’s latest single “Diamondz” has featured artwork from Australian 3D artist Jason Ebeyer. Jason has done artwork for Doja Cat, Bebe Rexha, Kim Petras, Steve Aoki, Icona Pop and more. Rachele’s latest music video “Please Her” was Directed and choreographed by Matt Cady and Ricky Palomino (DWTS, SYTYCD, Madonna).
Her new singles include Hooligans, Rules, Diamondz and Please Her. Streaming everywhere!
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Losing my mother to suicide has been the hardest thing I will have to go through. She has been such a guiding light. Showbiz is definitely rough! Being a woman in music is not easy. These days thankfully women are coming forward with the stories that most of us don’t want to tell. I want to continue to empower women and myself to stand our ground, demand respect, get paid, create healthy boundaries, etc. I hope that we can get our numbers up in all areas and get women in the roles of power!
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I’m really proud of the music I’ve made with incredibly talented producers and writers. Music videos included. I write for other artists as well and it is amazing to see them shine. I am now acting again as well and will be in 2 movies next year ! To hear the music search Rachele Royale on any streaming platform. We are now currently in production for the “Hooligans” music video. Give it a listen and let me know what you think!
Any advice for finding a mentor or networking in general?
Talk to women who have succeeded. Surround yourself with people who are honest and willing to help. Demand respect! Keep your eye on the prize and get a therapist. 🙂
