LAURIE MILLER (AKA XICA PRODUCTIONS) is one of the original members and co-creators of the Original Expose’.
"When Lewis reached out to me about this project, I was all in. We had both been interviewed on camera for an upcoming hour-long documentary about the making of the original version of "Point of No Return" which is now streaming world wide.
The reincarnation of X-posed now called "O-BABY" is more than a revival. As Jonpito recently said, “it is a movement!” We are bringing 3 generations of women, of all ages, backgrounds and identities to the stage with the original look and choreography of the original Expose’, re-imagined for today with these incredible new remixes from Lewis and a stellar new line-up.
We wanted to show our love and share this experience with everyone to show that our thoughts, prayers and wishes can create miracles.
This is a salute to all the incarnations of Expose' past and present.
In collaboration with Lewis Martineé aka DJ Martineé, we look forward to bringing back some of the original songs we performed and some new music as well."
KARINA FERNANDEZ
Karina is our millennial and is featured on the new release of Point of No Return. Not only is she a incredibly gifted singer and dancer but she also pursues an avid love for Theater, performing in many local theatrical productions, of course mostly musicals!
With her Dad being involved in the music industry Karina had early “EXPOSURE” to freestyle music and was always a big fan of Expose’.
She comes from a very musical family with an interesting connection to Lewis as her father continues to perform in a band with the legendary Fro Sosa. Fro is known for his work with Lewis from the very beginning of X-Posed on Point of No Return and Exposed to Love. Not only did he contribute musically but Fro is also singing background vocals on just about every song on the EXPOSURE album.
“To have this opportunity to work with Lewis and Laurie and now Rina, and be part of this epic revival of the original X-posed, Expose’ and now O-Baby is a dream come true!” @karinaaballerina
