About Us
Founded in Houston, Texas, Gradation Music is an independent production company and label currently focused on releases from FERNI and WE ARE STORIES, with a long-term vision of supporting additional independent artists.
Founded by musician, songwriter, and producer Ferni Lopez, Gradation Music is built on the belief that great music begins with authentic artistic expression. By fostering a collaborative and supportive creative environment, we aim to help artists bring their ideas to life, connect with listeners, and build lasting musical legacies.
Our focus is on supporting the creative process through artist development, music production, recording, release strategy, and distribution.
Artists
Gradation Music currently serves as the creative home for two original music projects connected by a shared commitment to authentic songwriting, creative independence, and artistic growth.
From the introspective songwriting and production work of FERNI to the energetic, guitar-driven sound of WE ARE STORIES, each project brings a distinct voice and perspective. Together, they reflect the collaborative spirit and creative vision at the heart of Gradation Music.
As Gradation Music evolves, our goal is to expand opportunities for collaboration, artist development, and future releases while continuing to support music that is original, meaningful, and true to the artists who create it.
