American Idol finalist and reality show star Kimberley Locke teamed up with mentor Randy Jackson, launching his new label Dream Merchant 21. First out of the gate is "Strobelight," a retrodisco flavored confection that evokes classic divas like Gloria Gaynor and Thelma Houston while maintaining a modern 00 feel. A massive buzz record at Winter Music Conference, the track is already available on Itunes and remixes by Tony Moran and Warren Rigg will no doubt help Kimberley score another massive club smash. Following her Billboard club chart topping streak ("Change," "Band of Gold," and "Fall,)" there is no doubt that "Strobelight" will make it four for four. Going back to her Tennessee roots, Kimberley will team up to perform the single at the Disco Diva Bash concert benefiting the One Heartland charity on June 19th at the Nashville War Memorial Auditorium.

Love, love, love this song. I’m really proud of Kim for taking a chance on going with a retro-influenced sound. That can really backfire if not done properly. Here’s hoping this is her fourth time at #1 on the club chart.
