Margo Rey’s Habit Can Be Your Habit Too

Her new album “Habit” features Margo’s new Top 20 charting single “Between Us,” as well as “Let the Rain.” The latter, co-written by Ms. Rey and the legendary John Oates, remained on the charts for 21 weeks, making it Billboard’s “Hot Shot Debut” and additionally earning her kudos in the magazine’s “Bubbling Under” column. The duo also teamed up on the cut “Saturn Returns.” Oates sings on both tracks and he provides an ideal complement to Rey’s vocals.

In addition, Margo is preparing for her upcoming national holiday tour with Dave Koz. The holiday tour kicks off on November 23rd with all dates found below. The Dave Koz and Friends Christmas Tour will be a high-energy tour featuring not only Margo Rey, but David Benoit, Javier Colon and Shelia E.

Reflecting on the direction of “Habit”, Margo explains: “I wanted something ‘lo-fi’ as opposed to the cloned sounds of today’s pop culture environment. I needed my music to sound like me rather than the equipment it was recorded on. Plus, I feel a huge affinity — love affair even — for the singer/songwriter era of the seventies and eighties.”
