Edito de Seeds of LoveÅsa - pronounced "Awsa" taken from Norse Mythology meaning Goddess. Åsa Rydman's eclectic music has been described as Bjork meets ABBA with a bit of Sarah McLachlan, Jewel, Norah Jones and even Dido (on her more up-tempo compositions). However, Åsa has developed her own style of creative and sensual songwriting. Her music is harmonious, warm with a mystical Nordic touch tied to philosophical lyrics with memorable melodies. She even shows off her love of jazz, electronica and Swedish folk music. "Seeds of Love," Åsa's recently released EP has been receiving tremendous accolades and three of the tracks are featured in the movie, "My Funny Valentine" directed by noted director Jeff Oppenheim starring Anthony Michael Hall. Her band has been performing at many of NYC's hot night spots including Fez, CBGB's and the Living Room and has been amassing quite a loyal following. She has been featured on both TV and radio in the US and Scandinavia. She has also been working and writing songs with some of NY's brightest and best songwriters. She has even had time to support some worthy political causes, i.e. the atrocities, which have taken place in Sarajevo. She's attracted many noted, well known musicians and her current CD was recorded and produced by renowned producer Mattias Bylund. The CD was released through Musicgarden Productions. The vibrant young artist has recently been asked to be an artist in residence for OTHER VOICES for the upcoming year 2004 - a highly prestigious organization. So, one can see that Åsa is headed for great success. A true natural, Åsa has the ability to engage her audience with her charismatic personality. Check her out and you too will become a fan. -written by Marcy Drextler Lire la suite
