AURESIA's direct comments on the concert in Peru that started her 2012 WORLD TOUR:

"The show was amazing! High energy between the crowd and Auresia and Pochi Marambio was uplifting, full of international love for reggae music and conscious roots. Bringing all different types of people together of different ethnic and social/ economic backgrounds for the love of music and for joy. The multi-level club was packed to the roof with people bopping up and down waiving their arms and dancing with sunflowers. There was lineup down the street due to the full capacity"

Auresia

Reviews Soul, Funk & World Mar 2009

By David DacksNo auto-tuners here. It's refreshing to hear a carefully produced reggae album that dispenses with the most current and obvious tricks of the trade. At times, this Montreal singer's debut is a thoroughly captivating disc, with more inventive hooks and melodic touches than most roots albums. When it all comes together on majestic tracks like the Augustus Pablo-flavoured "Jah Goddess" and the heartfelt and focused tribute to her mother, "Echoes of Fall," it's obvious that Auresia is a talent worth watching. Unfortunately many other songs suffer from awkward lyrical turns ("Weather is changing/so is my brain" in "Genuine Smile") or from a lack of finishing polish, especially in the freestyle vocalizations. The music and the mix are never at fault though. Every track on this album is deep and delicious, with bass sweetness and dub-informed production. All this adds up to a sometimes bumpy but ultimately successful first missive. No doubt the rougher edges will be smoothed out in subsequent recordings.

Born of Ukrainian decent in Edmonton, Alberta, she has been charming audiences since the age of 3. Her style is a new breed of Reggae for the urban soul; deep roots riddims swathed by the melodies of Auresia’s sweet and haunting voice.

Auresia and her 5 piece band always puts on a great show, filled with high-energy and positive vibes, she captivates the audience with her meditative vocals and always leaves them dancing.

FIVE-TIME NOMINATED REGGAE ARTIST RAISES THE ‘GREEN’ BAR
Montreal’s AURESIA drops new Eco-Dancehall single
October 18 2011 – Auresia takes her unique blend of Caribbean spice and Urban-flavoured soul to new heights of social consciousness with her first fair-trade dancehall release, Fuel Up (On Love).
Mixed in Jamaica by world-renowned dancehall engineer Tandra Jhagroo (who’s worked with the likes of Sly and Robbie, Shaggy, and Sean Paul) and loaded with unforgettable hooks, this track shows us that solutions to ecological issues lie within each of us. All to a rhythm that won’t let you sit still, Fuel Up (On Love) uses the Accopocco Riddim from Toronto’s Smoke Shop Productionz and is co-produced by David Lines and Auresia herself.
Auresia is currently working with David Beatty (Nelly Furtado, Fefe Dobson) on her new record. The album will be released in early spring of 2012.
In the 2 years since her first, self-titled album dropped, Auresia has been one of the busiest independent artists on the Canadian musical landscape, claiming a ‘Favourite World Artist’ nomination at the 2010 Independent Music Awards and 4 nominations at the 2009 Canadian Reggae Music Awards.
With 2 cross-country tours behind her, dozens of festivals and hometown shows, Auresia has shared the stage with Ky-mani Marley, Sister Nancy, Tanya Stephens, Sugar Minott, Sanchez, Shaggy, Queen Ifrica, Tony Rebel, and Clinton Fearon.
Auresia is escaping the Canadian winter to tour all across South America in early 2012, with tours set up Argentina to Panana, including Brazil and French Guyana; she will soon be taking over the pop scene. Keep an eye out as well for Auresia’s sophomore album (working title Dangerous in Love) set to be released in Spring 2012.
AURESIA’S BIOGRAPHY*

Exploding onto the global musical scene with musical roots as diverse as the modern globalized audience, Auresia is poised to take the international market by storm. Taking inspiration from Montreal’s unique pop sensibilities as well as the soul of Reggae, her music's worldly flavors remain grounded in the best parts of her musical tradition while keeping herself free to innovate and inspire. A singer, songwriter and guitarist out of Montreal, she was nominated for Favorite World Artist at the 2010 Independent Music Awards and for 4 Awards at the Canadian Reggae Music Awards.

Born in Edmonton of Ukrainian decent, Auresia has been singing and charming audiences from the age of three. Her style is a new breed of Reggae for the urban soul; deep roots rhythms swathed by the melodies of Auresia’s sweet and haunting voice. Through her intricate melodies, beautiful harmonies and combination of world, Caribbean, soul, R&B, pop flavours and thoughtful lyrics, it’s evident that Auresia’s sound is diverse.

Auresia's shows are high-energy and pulse with positive vibes while captivating the audience with her meditative vocals. After years of performing in US, Jamaica, Europe, and touring Canada from East to West (26 dates in 2009 Canada Roots Tour and 24 dates on her 2010 Summer Canada Love Tour), Auresia has developed a strong fan base. She is scheduled to perform further international shows later this Fall and Winter in Europe, Jamaica, Colombia, Brazil, Chile and Argentina with the release of new singles and videos: “Quiero Bailar” and “ Fuel Up (on Love)” this Spring/ Summer 2011.

Currently working on her sophomore album “Dangerous in Love” (working title), it will include tracks co-written by Omar Martinez (co-writer of Justin Bieber’s song, Pray), and tracks produced by David Beatty (Producer of Nelly Furtado’s, “Folklore“, a multi-platinum award winning album); all to be released later this Summer!

REVIEWS of AURESIA’s DEBUT ALBUM:

‘Auresia’-self-titled album, released November, 2008

"This Montreal singer's debut is a thoroughly captivating disc, with more inventive hooks and melodic touches than most roots albums. When it all comes together on majestic tracks like the Augustus Pablo-flavoured "Jah Goddess" and the heartfelt and focused tribute to her mother, "Echoes of Fall," it's obvious that Auresia is a talent worth watching. Every track on this album is deep and delicious, with bass sweetness and dub-informed production."-- David Dacks, Exclaim! Feb/March 2009

“Montreal has produced an artist who can run the range of Jamaician influence - Auresia. Tunes like “Give a Little Time” and “Jah Goddess” are emblematic of Auresia’s golden-era styled reggae, reaching back to the 1970’s, melodica and all- though she adds in a little contemporary influence, her sweet, soft voice becoming a little less so on a track like “What is Right.” A competent debut from a talented artist who knows how to combine a folk-driven style with the roots of reggae.” 8/10– Erin MacLeod, Montreal Mirror, January 15-21, 2009.

"One of the most distinctive things about Auresia's music is that although like many singers here and abroad, she writes good and meaningful lyrics, she also has the very rare (at least in reggae) ability to compose and play the music beautifully as well. She is a consummate musician, a skillful singer and deftly uses her voice as one of the instruments in the mix. Auresia is one of the few people left who truly understands the value of non-synthesized sounds and is the first female reggae producer from Quebec I have ever heard, and one of the first Canadians this year to properly orchestrate/arrange a horn section, complete with melodica; Proper!"- DJ Chocolate, Radio DJ CKLN, Toronto, ONT

"Auresia is Montreal's own Queen of Reggae! Her combination of reggae, R&B and roots own her a style that is uniquely her own."- Empress Soul, Positive Creations Music Collective, Canada

“… a stylish and smooth reggae recording that speaks both a personal and universal truth. Auresia's passionate approach to music and life helps explain why the album garnered four nominations at this year's Canadian Reggae Music Awards…”—Francois Marchand, Edmonton Journal, Edmonton, AB
