“It’s kind of fun that scenes shot in Manhattan make it seem like the Factory Underground is in New York City, but it’s great that you see our branding all through the video; the producers were very kind to us in that regard. We really enjoyed hosting the production. Everyone was friendly and super professional,” said Marc Alan, Factory Underground Director of Marketing.

“My Fire” first premiered  through Billboard.com, where thousands of viewers read up about the production of the music video.

We are so proud of the studio for being a part of Nile Rodgers, Tony Moran, and Kimberly Davis’s new project, and we wish them all the best success with the new single.

Kenny Cash, one of the Factory Underground owners added: “It meant a lot to me professionally having Nile playing guitar in my studio, posting photos of the Factory on his Instagram. We are attracting incredible new artists to the studio every day, but this was definitely one for the books.”
