After recording the song, Matt subsequently reached out to Harry Wayne Casey of K.C. &amp; The Sunshine Band and offered to split the royalties with him&mdash;to which he agreed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">Matt may not be musically talented, nevertheless, his tunes are all fun, cathy and are all available on Apple Music, Spotify, and most streaming platforms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">The catchy chorus is pure disco funk and goes a little something like this: &#8221;<em>Shake Your Candy, baby It&rsquo;s what I like to do. Shake your Candy, baby It&rsquo;s my pleasure through and through. Shake, shake your candy. Shake my Candy to Cause when you shake it, good girl. My love is all over you.&rdquo; <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">Matt is best known for the comedy, Four Christmases, as well as the family drama, Soul Surfer. &ldquo;Mighty Oak&rdquo; is the first produced film Matt has written since recovering from a massive brain tumor he suffered in 2013. That film, starring Janel Parrish and Tommy Ragen will be hiring Netflix this summer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\" align=\"justify\">He looks forward to writing for movies and television well into the future, but it&rsquo;s his dream to make &ldquo;Shake You Candy&rdquo; one more hit for &ldquo;Uno&rdquo;, and KC &amp; The Sunshine Band.<\/p>\n<p><span style='font-size:18px !important;'>Media Contact<\/span><br \/><strong>Company Name:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/companyname\/imdb.com\/name\/nm0020820\/_56751.html\" rel=\"nofollow\">47th Street Productions<\/a><br \/><strong>Contact Person:<\/strong> Matt Allen <br \/><strong>Email:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/email_contact_us.php?pr=screenwriter-matt-allen-aka-uno-mars-releases-a-disco-song-shake-your-candy-and-cooped-kc-the-sunshine-band\" rel=\"nofollow\">Send Email<\/a><br \/><strong>Phone:<\/strong> 310 259 7156<br \/><strong>Country:<\/strong> United States<br \/><strong>Website:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0020820\/?ref_=fn_al_nm_2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0020820\/?ref_=fn_al_nm_2<\/a><\/p>\n<p><object type=\"text\/html\" data=\"http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm0020820\/?ref_=fn_al_nm_2\" style=\"width:900px; height:400px;\"><\/object><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/press_stat.php?pr=screenwriter-matt-allen-aka-uno-mars-releases-a-disco-song-shake-your-candy-and-cooped-kc-the-sunshine-band\" alt=\"\" width=\"1px\" height=\"1px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With nothing but the gig app known as Fiverr, and the DIY music distributer, Distrokid, a Hermosa Beach based screenwriter was able to write, produce, and distribute a catchy disco song and essentially co-produced it with Harry Wayne Casey of &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/screenwriter-matt-allen-aka-uno-mars-releases-a-disco-song-shake-your-candy-and-cooped-kc-the-sunshine-band_479030.html\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[433,454,419,404],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-479030","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-Arts-Entertainment","category-Celebrity","category-Media-Communications","category-US"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/479030","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=479030"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/479030\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=479030"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=479030"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.abnewswire.com\/pressreleases\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=479030"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
