Marina V
Russian-born Los Angeles resident, Marina V (Verenikina) has just release her 3rd CD entitled Modern Fairytale. She permanently moved to the US at the age of 17 and has been pursuing her dream of being a Pop/Rock Singer/Songwriter. She is an unusual mix of Tori Amos, Jewel and Paul McCartney. Her influences have been Tchaikovsky and the Beatles. Marina muses “There aren’t many performers who blend Russian music with Pop/Rock, so I feel it’s part of my mission to be a cultural ambassador in this world”.
My favorite track on the CD is the opening song “Hope”. She has a very haunting voice and the songs flow together very nicely. It’s a magical journey through love & loss, peace & war, struggle & success, togetherness & loneliness, with a very fairytale like feeling.
Marina’s CD was released in January 2008. It is available at her website (www.marinav.com) and she will sign it for you as well. A self-described ambitious workaholic, Marina continues touring, writing & recording while looking for an artist-friendly record label.
I love writing songs and I really love performing them for my audience. I can’t imagine a day without music. I will be doing this forever.
She will be touring this summer so drop by one of the shows, she would love to perform for you.
