notes

Singer/songwriter/musician Atoosa explores love and hope, devastation and desire, in her unflinchingly honest search for truth. Her intensely personal lyrics, captivating vocals, and magnetic stage presence have been transcending musical boundaries while garnering audience attention and critical acclaim.

Compelled by her passion for music, Atoosa went on to gig widely in New York City at venues such as The Living Room, Makor, and The Knitting Factory, and to release Out of the Jar, produced by Emily Lazar, and her self-produced second album, Sound Travels Up, which she describes as “my hopeful twist on twisted things.” Both received rave reviews. CDBaby Magazine wrote of Out of the Jar, “sparkling piano, shimmering strings, widely varied percussion, fragile-yet-confident vocals, and heavenly guitar combine and shine in this well-rounded and musically complex CD.” Of Sound Travels Up, MusicDish.com wrote, “Atoosa’s own blend of pop, folk and raw, un-genre’d ballad style is a persuasive argument against NO....This CD is very strong, and lets us witness the poet that has taken the time to craft such pretty flowers.”

Derek Sivers, President of CDBaby.com, lauds Atoosa as “creative and delicious,” and CollectedSounds.com wrote, “I can’t wait to hear what she does next!” Her next effort has arrived and lives up to the expectation and buzz. With its release, Atoosa excitedly looks forward to continued local gigs, touring and media appearances, and especially, “learning more about this world we inhabit,” and continuing to inspire audiences by “having the freedom to be who you really are.” Because to Atoosa, that is what her music is all about.

  • Moving Melodies and Lyrics
    author: Pam from St. Louis

    While this is a short album at 6 songs, it it worth every penny spent and then some! The melodies are memorable and the lyrics are moving.

  • Atoosa takes you to another Universe
    author: Katie Horrocks

    These songs take the listener to an entirely different world. The haunting melodies are unlike anything I've ever heard. The only thing better is actually hearing her live.

  • Very impressive
    author: Wow

    On this CD, atoosa portrays her talents for profound lyrics and interesting melodies. Vocally, she reminds me of Leah Andreone and Terami Hirsch. My favorites on this disc are I Don't Care and The Goodbye Song - really this is music for the mind....

  • A Strangely Beautiful Dream
    author: Lisa 2 Centz

    Hauntingly and magically beautiful. I crave this CD!. A staple in my musical diet. Her rythmic variation from out of nowhere and interesting effects make Atoosa a powerful new favorite. Music from the soundtrack of life as a girl. Like floating thru one of those strangely beautiful dreams.

  • Wow what a cool combo!
    author: Elisabeth

    This is like the best parts of Kate Bush as fronted by the Murmurs, so far....very encouraging!

  • Ethereal progressions in Universe and La Di Da are favorites
    author: Lphifer

    From the rhythmic I Don't Care to the haunting backbeat of The Goodbye Song and the simple, clean cadence of If I Could Be A Dancer, this CD is full of surprises. The ethereal progressions in Universe and La Di Da make these my favorite tracks. On this CD, Atoosa reminds me of a richer, more harmonious Tori Amos or Kate Bush.
