“Choose Me” was produced by Nashville’s legendary Producer, James Stroud. Performed by Presley & Taylor with hopes that people would be inspired enough to rescue a dog in need of a home. Proceeds from the record will be donated to the Pedigree Foundation by White Mustang Records.
Sister duo Presley & Taylor first recorded their touching new single “Choose Me” a couple of years ago and kept it in their back pocket for just the right time. After seeing a recent news story about an organization transferring 19 dogs and cats from a Baton Rouge shelter in the path of Hurricane Ida, they knew the time was now. Presley & Taylor asked their record label, White Mustang Records, to adjust their release schedule to accommodate the release of “Choose Me” in time for October’s Dog Adoption Month.
“We’ve been hanging on to ‘Choose Me,’ because we just loved the song,” said Presley & Taylor jointly. “Pet adoption is very close to our hearts and seeing the news story really struck a chord with us. We hope this song spurs people to adopt a pet from a local shelter and give a dog or cat the love it deserves.”
The single cover art features Presley & Taylor’s own rescue dog Rocky. The cuddly King Charles mix was first rescued by their grandmother in Connecticut. After her passing, the girls brought Rocky to live with them in Nashville.
Coinciding with the single release, Presley & Taylor are also thrilled to announce that they have decided to support PEDIGREE Foundation, a 501c3 nonprofit organization, with proceeds from the streaming and downloads of the “Choose Me” benefiting the organization. Proceeds from the single will be earmarked to support PEDIGREE Foundation’s grant program that supports rescues and shelters across the country. Presley & Taylor will serve as PEDIGREE Foundation ambassadors encouraging their fans to adopt, volunteer or donate to help end pet homelessness.
“PEDIGREE Foundation does a great job building awareness and identifying specific needs in times of disaster to make sure that resources go where they’re needed most,” said Presley & Taylor. “This relationship aligns perfectly with the goals we have for this song and helping spread awareness for pet adoption, and we are so proud to support PEDIGREE Foundation as ambassadors.”
Written by Tim Johnson and Joseph Williams Pupora, “Choose Me” is available at all streaming platforms now. A music video, directed by The Edde Brothers, is in the works.
