OFFICIAL BIO FOR RELEASE
Ariana Saraha - Mystical Songstress
"Celestial, soul-stirring, and sometimes sultry -- the perfect combination!"
At once earthy and ethereal, Ariana's lush voice and exquisite compositions
take the listener on a mystical and soulful journey. Most often compared
to Celtic singer Loreena McKennitt, Ariana is a spellbinding artist,
escorting audiences into realms untouched by the day-to-day. The exotic
fusion of sounds that inspire her music draw upon her gypsy roots, traditional
music of India and the Middle-East, and Celtic and Spanish flavorings.
Through her entrancing melodies, sultry grooves, and compelling lyricism,
Ariana becomes a siren for the soulfully seeking. She does so in the
most enchanting way, through the uncommon passion and lush purity of
her angelic voice.
ALBUM REVIEW
July 1st, 2011 - by Guy Errickson for Colorado Music Buzz
Smoldering, a "Slow Burn" traverses through smoky vocals and breathtaking
music influenced by Middle Eastern, Celtic, and Classical Indian music.
This is the diaphanous veil wherein Ariana Saraha (Tribal
Electra, Angels of Alchemy, performing vocals, darbuka, cajon, & guitar)
escorts the listener on her new album, Live at Immersive Studios. Joined
in the serene endeavor by the incomparable multi-instrumentalist and singer Beth
Quist (Cirque du Soleil, Bobby McFerrin, Sherefe, BOQ Trio) performing
on guitar, Hammered Dulcimer, keys and harmony vocals; Scott
'Seva' Bears (Khamsa Khala) playing stellar oud; David
Alderdice (Feast, Deva Dancing, Sticky
Mulligan) storming on drums and percussion; and Meagan
Chandler providing guest vocals for "Shadowdances." Dancing at
concerts ranges from meditative to ecstatic, swaying through yoga poses
or furious twirling; guided reverie ". . . all the way home." Aural
art at it's finest; she elegantly projects an aura of peace, joy, and well-being.
Ariana's voice wafts heavenly, brilliant and subtle, power calm with poignant
ethereal clarity.
