An fascinating and exciting vocalist, Sudha Ragunathan's process has been powerfully championed by Dr. Winston Banchacharam's Nanuet, NY-based Amutham label. She well-read from the acclaimed songstress M.L. Vasanthakumari. In June 1988 she was awarded the rubric Amutha Isai Vani (a Tamil acknowledgement of the nectar-sweet theology of her voice) by the Ikankai Thamil Sangam organisation in the U.S.A. in recognition of her achievements for Tamil song. She is visualised with this prize on Tamil Melodies from Amutha Isai Vani Sudha Ragunathan (Amutham WS 001). Her voice is a joy, and on the effectiveness of her Amutham output signal an exploration of her recordings on AVM and EMI India is warranted.

Melissa Etheridge became one of the virtually democratic recording artists of the '90s due to her mixture of confessional lyrics, pop-based folk-rock, and scratchy, Janis Joplin/Rod Stewart-esque vocals. But the road to stardom was not all politic sailing for Etheridge as she debated behind the scenes whether or not to let on to the populace that she was gay other on in her life history. Born May 29, 1961, in Leavenworth, KS, Etheridge first gear picked up the guitar at the age of eighter and began writing her possess songs shortly thenceforth. Playing in local bands throughout her teens, Etheridge then accompanied the celebrated Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA. The energetic singer/songwriter and guitarist dropped out afterward a year before making her way to Los Angeles in the early '80s to give a shot at a career in music. Etheridge's music at this point was more or less more than bluesy than her subsequently notable folk-pop style, as a demo of original compositions caught the attention of Bill Leopold, world Health Organization signed on as Etheridge's manager. Soon after, steady gigs began coming her way, including a five-night-a-week residency at the Executive Suite in Long Beach, which light-emitting diode to a bid war betwixt such major phonograph recording labels as A&M, Capitol, EMI, and Warner Bros., only it was Island Records that Etheridge distinct to go with.


Etheridge's first recorded work appeared on the disregarded soundtrack to the Nick Nolte prison picture Weeds before her self-titled debut was issued in 1988. The album cursorily drew comparisons to such heavyweights as Bruce Springsteen and John Mellencamp, as it spawned the murder individual "Bring Me Some Water" and earned amber certificate. In the heat of the album's success, Etheridge performed at the Grammy Awards the following year and contributed vocals to Don Henley's The End of the Innocence. Etheridge managed to avoid the fearful sophomore slump with 1989's Brave and Crazy, which followed the same musical convention as its predecessor and proven to be some other gold-certified success. It would be almost 3 days earlier Etheridge's next studio album appeared, however, and 1992 signaled the arriver of Never Enough, an record album that proven to be more musically varied.


Just it was Etheridge's fourth release that would rise to be her massive commercial-grade breakthrough. Tired of rumors and questions regarding her sexuality, Etheridge decided to put the conjecture to lie once and for all, titling the album Yes I Am. Ex-Police producer Hugh Padgham guided the record album, which spawned two major MTV/radio hits with "I'm the Only One" and "Come to My Window" (the latter of which featured a video with movie actress Juliette Lewis); the record album would sell a astonishing 6 billion copies in the U.S. during a single-year geological period and earned a 1995 Grammy Award for Best Female Rock Vocalist. But subsequent releases failed to pair the success of Yes I Am, including 1995's Your Little Secret, 1999's Breakdown, and 2001's Tegument, the latter of which dealt with her separation from Julie Cypher. (Cypher had birthed the couple's 2 children via artificial insemination; CSN&Y's David Crosby was the father.)


2002 adage the outlet of Etheridge's autobiography, The Truth Is: My Life in Love and Music, and 2004's Lucky was her jubilation of a newfangled love story. Later that same twelvemonth Etheridge revealed that she'd been diagnosed with chest cancer. But early sensing allowed for recovery, and she gave strong point to many of those smitten by the disease with a powerful operation of Janis Joplin's "Slice of My Heart" at the 47th Annual Grammys, held in February 2005. That September Etheridge released Superlative Hits: The Road Less Traveled, a digest of calling highlights and newfangled material. It featured a cover up of Tom Petty's "Refugee" as advantageously as "Piece of My Heart" and a unexampled vocal dedicated to breast malignant neoplastic disease survivors. In 2007 Etheridge released her number one studio album of new real in three long time, The Awakening, on Island.

With her shaven head and seven-octave range, Sainkho Namtchylak would stand out on whatsoever level. Add her especial desegregate of Tuvan throat-singing and avant-garde temporary expedient, and she becomes an unforgettable figure. The daughter of a couple of schoolteachers, she grew up in an obscure village on the Tuvan/Mongolian edge, uncovered to the local partial tone vocalizing -- something that was generally reserved for the males; in fact, females were actively discouraged from scholarship it (even forthwith, the best-known practitioners persist male, artists like Huun-Huur-Tu and Yat-Kha). However, she conditioned much of her traditional repertory from her nanna, and went on to report music at the local college, only she was denied professional qualifications. Quietly she studied the overtone telling, as intimately as the shamanic traditions of the realm, before leaving for study further in Moscow (Tuva was, at that time, portion of the U.S.S.R.). Her degree completed, she returned to Tuva where she became a member of Sayani, the Tuvan state of matter folk ensemble, before abandoning it to return to Moscow and connexion the experimental Tri-O, where her vocal talents and signified of melodic and harmonic chance could wander freely. That first brought her to the West in 1990, although her first recorded exposure came with the Crammed Discs compilation Out of Tuva. Once Communism had collapsed, she moved to Vienna, making it her foundation, although she traveled widely, working in any number of shifting groups and transcription a number of discs that revolved about disembarrass improvisation -- not dissimilar Yoko Ono -- as well as performing about the globe. It was emphatically fringe music, although Namtchylak conventional herself identical hard as a fixture on that fringe. In 1997 she was the victim of an attack that left her in a coma for respective weeks. Initially she idea it was some inspired payback for her originative hubris, and seemed to step back when she recorded 1998's Nude Spirit, which had modern age leanings. However, by 2000 she seemed to have subdue that obstruct, releasing Stepmother City, her near approachable work to escort, where she seemed to truly find her stride, intermixture traditional Tuvan instruments and tattle with turntables and personal effects, placing her in a creative empyrean betwixt Yoko and Björk, simply with the je ne sais quoi of Mongolia as part of the steal. A display case at the WOMEX Festival in Berlin brought her to the attention of many, and in 2001 a U.S. circuit was plotted.
