The Vocal Producer
CO-CEO
Mirända Cherell is no stranger to the industry.
Formerly, a founding partner of Miralex Music, Miranda has recorded with or composed songs for some of the nation's premier gospel artists along with former partner, Asaph Alexander Ward. With group, High Praise/HP2, she traveled the country sharing the stage with top gospel, country and jazz artists. But her heart has always lied in composing. This gift has afforded her opportunities to write
for notables, such as Pastor Kim Burrell, Virtue, Benita Jones, Chrystal Rucker, Virtue and many others. This also opened many doors that led to vocal work with iconic gospel artists; Chrystal Aikin, Dorinda Clark Cole, Coko, Twinkie Clark, Smokie Norful, The Clark Sisters, Joann Rosario, and even demoing movie soundtrack music for Beyonce.
Mirända is on her second go-round in the music industry. This time around, son Josiah “JDream” is bringing his new sound into the mix. Together, they are ready to make waves.

It all began with the 8th grade talent show at Lincoln Academy...
How it all began
An invitation to a duet performance with a friend, led to the beginning of Impresario founder, Mirända Cherell’s journey into building groups. She would eventually turn the duo into a group, then pull together many assemblages over the years; grouping phenomenally extraordinary vocalists who wanted to make beautiful music with others. Taking part in some of the ensemble groupings, her most notable, and dear group experience was with HP²/High Praise (featured on Camp Impresario’s latest Christmas EP).
Miranda's knack for crafting “vocal bands” has been paramount to her music experience. And now, many years later, her son, Josiah|JDREAM, has not only picked up that mantle, but has transcended her gift by adding his own brilliant musicality and creative vocal stylings to the soloists, dynamic duos, eclectic quartets and tiny choirs he brings together in chorus to execute his J Dream Compositions under Camp Impresario.
Impresario and its subsidiary, Camp Impresario seeks to express the gifts God has given in ways that motivate, engage and inspire creative adventures.
