Meet Nick Kese of Luval Entertainment in North Hollywood

Today we’d like to introduce you to Nick Kese.

Nick, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
I have been producing music since the age of 18.

Graduated from Musicians Institute in Hollywood in 2011.

Started Luval Ent. to bring artists of all mediums together through an independent, grassroots network.

Have toured multiple times throughout the country including having our own showcase in Austin, TX for SXSW 2016.

We host shows monthly in Los Angeles and throughout SoCal, in which our residency shows double as charity clothing and food drives.

We were able to reach the level we are at today because of the communities support and their willingness to be involved.

Because of them we have been able to host shows, travel and build a full service recording/production studio in North Hollywood .

Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Not at all, there are always obstacles to overcome at any level of operation. The more we grow the larger our obstacles. I would say the toughest struggle at this point has been to find good, honest people who are here to perfect their craft, not only for themselves but for the community we represent. There is a lot of filtering that has to be done to weed out the selfish and egocentric.

Luval Entertainment – what should we know? What do you guys do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
Our goal at Luval Ent. is to fill the gaps that an artist has in their network. That can mean anything from music videos to performance bookings to recording sessions and production.

The music industry has changed allowing the general population to be able to produce, record and publish music from their bedrooms at a relatively low cost, we provide the services to artists that they can’t, or don’t know how to do themselves, whatever that may be. We specialize in everything, that’s something that give me pride and I believe that is what sets us apart from others, diversity. Our company can do everything from fully develop you as an independent artist to simply creating your next album artwork. We take pride in being well rounded and open minded that’s why its Luval (Love all), We do it all because we love it all!

What moment in your career do you look back most fondly on?
It’s difficult to single out one moment of my career, especially considering its far from over… I always feel the best when artists or fans are satisfied with what we do. When someone comes up to me and thanks me for booking them for a show or for making their track sound awesome, how I changed their life and let them know they can really make this happen. That’s probably the most satisfying thing about what I do. There’s really nothing like seeing someone realize their own potential because of something you did for them.
