Bio
At only 22 years of age, Cory Wires has already spent most of his life in the music industry. He and his twin brother, Daryl, began performing as youngsters, winning talent shows that led to studio time. As teens, the siblings toured as R&B/Pop due Playback. They performed on MTV's TRL Live, toured with Radio Disney, and opened for a who's who of major artists, including NeYo, Kanye West, Aaron Carter, Jagged Edge, 112, Casley, Mary J. Blige, Lloyd and Bow Wow. Now signed to BRONX BRIDGE ENTERTAINMENT INC./FONTANA, Cory Wires is launching his solo career. His first single, "Lost In The Music," showcases his many talents as a singer, songwriter and studio pro. "I've been working on the album in my home studio," he says. "I do everything: produce, engineer, mix and write." "Lost In The Music" sets the stage for a full-length album, scheduled for summer release. The combination of power vocals and techno beats will introduce audiences to a new side of Cory Wires as he steps out on his own. "Daryl and I are still working in the music industry, but we're doing separate projects and trying out new paths," says Cory. "He's more into rap and I'm more into pop and production. I remember the first time I was in the studio, when I was 8 or 9, I was already asking questions and trying to push myself into that area. I had to know everything about it. When I was 12, I started working around it, and at 16, I started taking that side of it seriously. A few years ago, I began engineering, mixing and producing for other people. I like being able to take a song, manipulate it and turn it into anything I can imagine. I love having the ability to take my vision and make it come to life." Always the perfectionist, Cory strives to take each song to the next level. "I've always been able to hear complete projects in my head," he says. "I push myself to make it better every time and I'm never satisfied. It can be tough, because you have to know when you've put everything into it; otherwise it will stress your brain. You have to cut the rope and say, 'It's done,' and move on to the next step. Sometimes that's hard for me to do because I always want to do more." Cory's love for music began early on. "I don't remember a day when music was not all I thought about," he says. "Daryl and I were born singing and dancing; it's in our blood. No one pushed us; it just kind of happened." When the twins were 7 years old, they performed in their first talent show, in Hampton Beach, New Hampshire. "It was our first performance and we didn't know what to expect," says Cory. "We got a taste of the stage and performing in front of a couple of thousand people. We won first place and got to go to the finals. That was our first time onstage, and hearing people go crazy, feeling that rush and energy, I knew that's where I wanted to be and where I belonged." Back home in Boston, the siblings caught the attention of a local producer and soon found themselves in the studio with Mark Wahlberg. From there, they began networking, doing session work and working their way up the ladder that led to the formation of Playback and extensive touring across the U.S. Through it all, Cory Wires was paying close attention to the process: making records, writing songs, learning the business side of music. "I was very young, but I was watching closely," he says. "I saw how computers started replacing hardware, and how the format changed from tape to CD to digital. The way we make music now is very exciting because it's affordable to have your own studio and get high-quality sound — if you know what you're doing. But I've also seen the industry change because of the Internet and illegal downloading and piracy. The public doesn't understand how great music is made and that it takes money to circulate and fund these projects." Wise beyond his years, Cory Wires possesses the skills, talent, business acumen and focus usually found in artists twice his age. He credits a lifetime of working with talented, experienced professionals for paving the way for his own success. "Being around those people helped develop my ears so that when I started producing myself, I understood how to judge what does and doesn't work," he says. "As the artist and the producer, I have to wear two hats at the same time and push myself to make it better and get it right. Being a part of Playback, the shows we've done, and the people we worked with and shared stages with taught me so much and got me to this point. Things are changing constantly in the music industry and it's a scary time, no doubt, but at the same time, I can't walk away because I want it so much. Nothing is going to stop me."
