CANADIAN RISING STAR AURESIA CHARTING SINGLE "HIGH" ON TOP OF MAINSTREAM RADIO RANKINGS IN QUEBEC

From the  infectious  opening  moments  of  “High,”  the  first  single  from  Edmonton-­‐raised  singer-­‐songwriter  Auresia,   it’s  easy  to  become  struck  by  how  engaging  and  worldly  her  unique  brand  of  reggae  infused  pop  is.  And  as  “High”   continues,  we  get  a  better  understanding  of  just  who  she  is:  a  soul-­‐influenced  singer  and  multi-­‐instrumentalist.  Now   with her  sophomore  release,  Risin’!,  the  sky  truly  is  the  limit.  

 

Incorporating  more  genres  than  you  can  shake  a  multi-­‐coloured  feather  at,  from  reggae  to  salsa,  flamenco  to  rock,   there  is  a  worldly  charm  to  the  13  tracks  on  Risin’!  Sung  in  English,  Spanish,  and  French  with  collaborations  from   musicians  in  Cuba,  Jamaica,  and  beyond,  it’s  no  surprise  that  the  Montreal-­‐based  artist  has  earned  nominations  at   the  Indie  Awards  for  “Best  World  Artist”  (2010)  as  well  as  garnering  four  nominations  at  the  Canadian  Reggae  Music   Awards  (2009).    

On  Risin’!  Auresia  is  insightful  and  motivated  with  an  inconceivable  passion.  “CHoCoLaTé”  begins  with  a  sensual   rhythm  before  quickly  evolving  into  a  full-­‐blown  club-­‐ready  anthem.  “Quiero  Bailar  (Solita)”  moves  with  a  powerful   Latin  groove  and  the  album’s  title  track  is  as  durable  and  expansive  a  pop  track  as  you’ll  ever  hear.  

 

 

“If there ever was a time, since Bob Marley where Reggae could actually penetrate popular music, Auresia definitely

has the potential to do it”  –  CBC  Radio  1  

Already  having  shared  the  stage  with  Shaggy  and  Kymani  Marley,  along  with  tours  throughout  South  America  and   Canada,  Auresia  has  been  impressing  audiences  since  the  age  of  three.  Born  of  Ukrainian  decent  and  blessed  with   incredible  talent,  vision,  and  inconceivable  passion,  Auresia's  Risin'!  encapsulates  all  of  her  influences  while   nurturing  the  roots  of  reggae  into  a  myriad  of  her  own  transcendent  sounds,  textures,  and  melodies.

Auresia: Biographie

Risin’!, le 2e album d’Auresia, est un tourbillon de mélodies pop déclamant l’amour dans tous ses aspects: l’amour exalté, l’amour à distance, l’amour risqué, l’amour de la planète, ou tout simplement…l’amour du chocolat! C’est un mélange de styles et de saveurs du monde qui saura plaire aux auditeurs de tout genre.

Dans Risin’!, Auresia collabore avec musiciens d’origines variées, de Montreal à Toronto, du Cuba à la Jamaïque, fusionnant les styles allant du reggae, RnB, salsa, dancehall, reggaeton au flamenco et rock. Il n’est donc pas surprenant qu’elle nous chante en anglais aussi bien qu’en espagnol et en français. Risin’! reflète l’évolution naturelledu style unique d’Auresia tel qu’entendu sur son premier album éponyme paru en 2008.

D’origine ukrainienne et provenant d’Edmonton, Auresia se perfectionne en tant que chanteuse-compositrice et multi-instrumentaliste, et dès l’âge de 3 ans charme son auditoire de sa voix angélique et dynamique, tissant des mélodies raffinées, des harmonies colorées et des rhythmes variés pour nous sortir une musique éclectique mais surtout indéniablement authentique.

En plus de ses albums studio, Auresia se produit sur scène au niveau international. Ses performances dynamiques sont infusées d’énergie positive et méditative. Elle a partagé la scène avec Shaggy, Kymani Marley, Sister Nancy, Tanya Stephens et plusieurs autres, en plus de s’être produite dans le cadre de festivaux de tels que le Omega Unity Fest (Medellin, Colombie), le Montreal and Ottawa Int’l Reggae Fests, le Montreal Pop Fringe Fest, le Festival Acadien et le Canadian Music Week.
