Whether writing and producing music for recording artists, his band Amelia’s Dream, TV commercials or shows and movies, Harold Stephan brings his love for music and the people who create and enjoy it to every project he is involved with.

Harold began his career as an assistant engineer at one of NYC’s busiest recording studios, UNIQUE, where he learned the art of pop record production, working side-by-side with guys like LL Cool J (Bigger and Deffer), Maurice Starr (New Kids On The Block), Keith Diamond (Donna Summer), and Phil Spector (John Lennon).

After meeting songwriting partner and future wife Amelia Gewirtz, the two founded Amelia’s Dream. Releasing three albums with a fourth in the works, their carefully crafted brand of alternative pop-rock has found it’s way into various MTV reality shows, Disney movies, and feature films.

As an experienced entrepreneur, Harold has kept in tune with the music industry’s continually shifting and growing opportunities. Taking advantage of opportunities in the commercial music industry, Harold worked with major brands like Chevy, Sears, Burger King, and Ocean Spray to expand their reach in the marketplace. He recently created Habitat Music and The Artist Development Group as a launching pad to develop and market great artists and bands.

An honors graduate of New York University, Harold has written feature articles for Electronic Musician and Keyboard Magazines. Harold is a voting member of N.A.R.A.S. (grammy.com) and lives in NYC with his wife Amelia and their son Adam.

Bringing what is hidden as a gift to others, through music.
