ABOUT CARO EMERALD
Caro Emerald is more than a name – it is a musical project we built together, fueled by a shared love for beats and vintage records, consisting of vocalist and performer Caroline van der Leeuw, lyricist and songwriter Vincent Degiorgio, songwriter and producer David Schreurs, and producer and engineer Jan van Wieringen. Drawing on their respective strengths in vocals and performance, lyrics and songwriting, production and recording, and creative development, they shaped the songs, sound, recordings, visual identity, and wider creative world that became known internationally as Caro Emerald.
Blending jazz, latin, swing and vintage-inspired influences with contemporary production, the project achieved international success: the debut album "Deleted Scenes From The Cutting Room Floor" set an all-time record on the Dutch albums chart, surpassing the previous record held by Michael Jackson's "Thriller", and earned multi-platinum sales and chart hits across Europe.

ABOUT THE SONG
Lyric snippet: [keep your own line here]
"A Night Like This" is one of the signature recordings from "Deleted Scenes From The Cutting Room Floor" that helped establish the distinctive Caro Emerald sound, combining latin-jazz influences, cinematic atmosphere and contemporary production.
David has described how fast it came together — he built the track "while Vince was packing his bags," the two wrote it in about an hour, and they had no idea it would become a hit. [Drop in David's full quote here if you want it verbatim.]
