NASHVILLE, TN. (Top40 Charts/ Rose Beach Official Website/ www.rosebeachmusic.com) - Tokyo-based Aboriginal Canadian artist Rose Beach announced that she has been admitted as a member in the
National Aboriginal Recording
Industry Association. NARIA is a national Aboriginal association of professional Aboriginal music artists, associated music business people, and service providers.
Rose Beach, whose blend of folk music tale spinning, hip hop energy and pop sensibility she labels 'fusion pop,' stands to set things to right on her CD Family Love by showing love in it's true light, as a force that is our life line.
Born in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada and raised primarily in Saskatchewan by a strong, loving and musically inclined mother of Canadian aboriginal ancestry and a farmer stepfather with a love of country music, she had the dream of music early in life. "The world view that pumps through her music comes from her family and her native culture and is one where pain, abuse and oppression are countered by kindness and integrity and positive use of the force," noted music reviewer Mark Kirby.
When asked on how her mother's experiences influenced her music, she responded "My grandmother, my great-grandmother and their generation suffered atrocities. My mother experienced racism. Their experiences made me want the dream (of achievement) all the more. The native youth are strong survivors and we are proud of our ancestry and our ancestors' legacy. Always positivity through negativity, which is the message of my CD, "Family Love.'
Starting in the underground streets of Vancouver and Tokyo, Rose Beach is rising into the musical mainstream in Japan where she has sold more than 50,000 records and performs weekly at many of Tokyo's famous clubs such as Club Asia, as well as corporate events for brand names ranging from Lush and Diesel to Asahi and Mac. "It's not often that a foreigner can rock the club scene in Japan, but that is what Canadian singer-songwriter Rose Beach is doing," noted the Hiragana Times.
In addition to her heavy independent CD sales, Rose Beach has been interviewed and received heavy airplay on Co-op Radio in her home base of Vancouver. She has also been interviewed and played on Inter-FM Radio in Tokyo.
