StayFamous.Net: “Where do you get most of your ideas?”
Michael Aaron Gallagher: “Most of my story ideas come from the things I’m interested in. I try to focus on projects that don’t always get the attention they deserve in Hollywood. I’m one of those people who follows my heart, wherever it leads. Sometimes it leads me to amazing stories that no one else has and other times people make fun of me for liking something that isn’t cool.

With the “core” of the record shaped by Ted Bruner and contributions made by Isaac Hasson and the impressive John Fields, Gomez benefited greatly from the masterful work of the team behind much of Demi Lovato’s musical success.
