Los Angeles-based DJ and producer The Archer unveils his latest house single, “Say Your Grace,” featuring the soulful vocals of Kenyan singer-songwriter Lisa Oduor-Noah. With its organica-house downtempo beat and touching lyrics, “Say Your Grace” is both hypnotizing and soothing at the same time. Released on There Is A Light, the label and foundation established by The Archer himself, which so far gave away over 600K USD to 100+ students to lift up genuine talent and create real opportunities for them, helping them sing for and finish IO Music Academy and more opportunities the foundation creates. This powerful collaboration is a testament to the spiritual and, thanks to There Is A Light foundation, the literal power of music and showcases vThe Archer’s commitment to uplifting emerging talent. Beyond his musical endeavors, he’s one of California‘s best trial lawyers and a founder of The Homampour Law Firm.
“‘Say Your Grace‘ is a testament to the spiritual power to guide and save us at any time during this human experience. This collaboration also fulfills my passion for showcasing the incredible talent of African artists like Lisa Oduor Noah, bridging cultures through the universal language of music and spirituality” – The Archer about “Say Your Grace”
“At the core of the label and scholarship initiatives is a commitment to lifting up genuine talent and creating real opportunities for emerging artists to share their music with the world. In an industry that’s become more about inflated numbers and flashy promos, the focus remains on fostering authentic artistry. We’re here to build a space where substance matters more than superficiality, where real music thrives. Working daily on the development of the label and its roster, I’ve learned firsthand how an artist can truly grow when they have the right support system.
It’s more than just dropping tracks – it’s about ensuring each release is backed by creative marketing, smart promotion and unwavering support. With this foundation, our artists aren’t just surviving the noise; they’re standing out, letting their unique voices be heard and their talents recognized and shared. Looking back on the students we have supported through our scholarship programs, it’s been incredibly rewarding to see raw potential evolve into fully realized talent. Our collaboration with Icon Collective and IO Music Academy has been a game-changer, breathing new life into these artists’ productions and careers. Their progress is a powerful reminder of how partnership and dedicated support can generate the future of music.” – The Archer about There Is A Light foundation
