Los Angeles, CA. (Top40 Charts/ Media Monster Communications) –
Music has always punctuated moments in time. Today’s mainstream
and Independent music artists are taking a stand to express their
thoughts and ideas about life in the name of the world, war, peace
and life. Vocalist-Songwriter-Musician -Producer, Sonya Kahn has
just released WHISPERING SOULS, the new edgy rock single available
at cdbaby.com/cd/sonyakahn2 and video viewable on her new web channel
at Youtube.com/sonyakahn This is a song she felt passionate and felt
driven to write, record and produce. ‘Life, history and current
events inspired me to write this song. I had to get this off of
my chest, talk about wars, about genocide. So many tragic earlier
historical events have happened in the past like the Jewish Holocaust
and Armenian Genocide – My family was affected by genocide on both
sides. People didn’t prevent genocide that went on more recently
in Rwanda, Cambodia, Bosnia and sadly it’s continuing. So this is
something I am very passionate about and always will be. I wanted to
write about all those innocent souls killed during different political
events that could be prevented if humans cared about each other more
than they do about money and power,’ states Kahn. ‘I hope people will
take their time to listen to my lyrics and let it in to awaken some
emotions. It’s a very moving, honest song with an important message we
all can use…to care more about each other and think twice about our
spiritual values. God is in each of us, we are part of the Universe
and have an obligation to protect each other and cherish what we’ve
been given,’ she explains. She also has created a discussion group
called Sonya Kahn’s Speak Out Symphony groups.myspace.com/sksos where
she will be addressing more about genocide, war, even Hollywood and
business ethics as she stays true to being an artist of expression.

WHISPERING SOULS is anything but a ‘whisper’ in terms of
production. Kahn is a classically trained artist born in Russia and
she has a Doctorate of Musical Arts Degree in concert piano performing
and musical theory.

Her experience roars in this track, highlighting her musical knowledge
and production skills, painting the song’s story instrumentally
like a musical Michelangelo. WHISPERING SOULS has a strong majestic
arrangement – very theatrical, almost James Bond motion-picture feel
to it. ‘It’s about a very important subject with strong message,
so the song naturally was going to be a big one. Starting from drum
sounds I already knew it was going to sound powerful, the level of
distortion/tone for guitars, string arrangements, piano riffs to the
tempo, intensity, harmonies and energy,’ Kahn explains.

Representing three generations of gifted musical performers in her
family, Sonya Kahn came to America only five years ago. She took it
upon herself to learn a new language specifically so she can write,
produce and sing songs in English. Self-motivated, this determined
music multi-hyphenate prevailed with her tenacious ambition and music
expertise to do it herself. ‘I am very passionate about this topic
and being a musician – songwriter/producer I feel responsible to do
my work, to play my part and spread the message, make people think
twice about their choices. Maybe this is an energy force that has to
come out and finds an artistic outlet. I’d like to think that I am
one of those chosen outlets. When purpose meets creativity the fusion
is powerful and that’s when I feel happy… feel like my creation is
important,’ Kahn explains.

Kahn just completed her 13-track CD, NEW BEGINNING, available at
iTunes, CDBaby.com, Digistation.com and soon in stores. This CD
features heartfelt rock power ballads, feisty driving rock songs,
and a few dance-beat murmurs and is on Sonya’s own label Mozarta
Muzik, where she performed wearing many hats singing, songwriting,
playing piano and guitar, arranging, and producing her own album. She
has over 650,000+ profile views on Myspace (myspace.com/sonyakahn),
one of her songs was featured on an Indie film soundtrack, and she has
a full enterprise of merchandise, downloads and wallpaper available
on her website sonyakahn.com.
