Quote:Miley Cyrus’s ‘Wrecking Ball’ a career builder for Toronto’s Stephan Moccio

He couldn’t have asked for a better calling card.

Six days after songwriter and composer Stephan Moccio relocated his family from Toronto to Los Angeles, he was enjoying a No. 1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100: “Wrecking Ball"...

...Moccio, 40, who co-wrote the number last year with fellow scribes Sacha Skarbek (James Blunt’s “You’re Beautiful”), Maureen “MoZella” McDonald, Lukasz “Dr. Luke” Gottwald (Kelly Clarkson’s “Since U Been Gone”) and fellow Torontonian expat Henry Russell “Cirkut” Walter (Katy Perry’s “Roar), said he’s been barely able to catch his breath since his latest stroke of fortune.

“My head is spinning right now,” Moccio admits. “Moving down here, the whole game has changed for me overnight. When you have a No. 1 song, the phone is literally ringing non-stop.”

... I decided to take some time off after ‘A New Day,’” he says breathlessly over the phone, calling ahead of schedule due to a number of pressing meetings, including one with producer DJ Khalil (Eminem).

...“This time I’ve decided to literally strike while the iron’s hot, because you don’t get these opportunities handed to you the way Miley’s ‘Wrecking Ball’ has come.

“They’re the big ones.”

And boy is the iron hot: Moccio says “the world’s biggest artists” have already contacted him and that each one of them “is saying, ‘I want a song from you.’”

“I’m struggling with which road to take, because I physically don’t have the time to appease everybody,” says Moccio, who says his L.A. move was necessitated in part by demand, in part by the easy accessibility to recording artists and in part by a desire to establish himself as a film composer.

“The relationship aspect is so key,” he explains. “Right now, because of ‘Wrecking Ball,’ people are saying, ‘We want you in a room with so-and-so next week,’ and I’m thinking, ‘Oh my God, that wouldn’t have been possible had I been anywhere else in the world.’”

...“I’m literally booked for the next five or six months, project after project.”
