June 4, 2012 - PRLog -- Recording artist Gio headed to Bally Sports in Bay Shore Long Island as part of her regular community involvement activities. While there, she talked to teenagers about staying healthy and the importance of exercising.

While the topic is not part of her “Feed Your Mind “Campaign which usually tackles issues such as teenage pregnancy, drugs, abuse, or anti-bullying; Gio thought it was good initiative to participate.

Gio Shared: “We hosted the event and gave out wristbands to all participants explaining the “Feed Your Mind” Campaign. We wanted to empower students and parents to feed their mind, body, and soul right, the equation to success. Once the mind and body connect, sky’s the limit! So we encouraged them to stay healthy, work out and drink plenty of water as a balance.”

In additional news, Gio recently announced the launch of an online merchandise store. The artist expanded her brand to Fashion while designing items for fans worldwide. In just a few clicks, customers will be able to purchase snapbacks and t-shirts for men, women, boys, and girls in all sizes via http://itsgiovannie.com. Gio also revealed she plans on giving all the proceeds to her non-profit organization “Feed Your Mind Campaign”.

She explains: “I want to take the campaign to another level. I call this the #upmovement. I started the campaign on my own and I am now partnering with Earbeataz Music Group and Community Partners. They are supporting our campaign 100 % in order to aid in achieving goals of reaching out 60 schools and youth organization for the next year. This store will give the community a chance to support a positive movement in planting the right seeds for the future of our youth. At the same time, it will help out branding out my music with my production team Earbeataz.”

The online store will be expanding its product line In the Fall, Gio plans on adding a line of sweaters and the hoodies with different designs. The products will be solely available online with hopes of securing a partnership with a retailer in the very near future.

About Gio
Gio has been involved with music as long as she can remember. Her early musical aptitude is not surprising when one considers the musical backgrounds of her family: her father was a producer and sound engineer, and her uncle played the Guitar/Bass and Piano in the Kompa group ZORO. Gio’s musical development is influenced by the music of Haiti, which is a combination of European music derived primarily from the French and by the Spanish-infused influence of Cuba and the bordering Dominican Republic and African migration through slavery. In 2010, after the destructive earthquakes in her home country Haiti, Gio inherited the music studio that her family had been running for years. Gio continued her studies as an undergraduate at Stonybrook University with a degree in Premed and Respiratory Care while beginning to write and produce her own music. Gio wants her music to be heard around the world to promote Haiti. Gio’s music’s universal edge bridges many gaps. It ranges from Neo-Soul, to Jazz, to R&B and Hip-Hop – but there’s no limit to the sounds Gio is bringing forth as she draws inspiration from her life’s lessons and blessings.
