The brand new holiday release, Through Sand and Snow Get it today: Jillian's debut album, Origins Pick up or download your copy: .. *~*~*~*~* BIOGRAPHY *~*~*~*~* Jillian Goldin's music, ethereal and uninhibited, reflects the awe and passion of timeless nature. Its soul-touching alchemy has attracted attention and multi-award-winning acclaim, deriving from her talent both as a classically trained vocalist and songwriter. Jillian has also amassed a passionate fan base online. In the listener-voted music competition OurStage.com, she triumphed over twenty thousand songs to win the $5,000 Grand Prize , and has garnered the New Age/World Prize thrice over. With other awards including third place in the Indie International Songwriting Contest, Mystic Soundscapes' Best of 2007 and 2008 Awards, and dozens of online features, Jillian Goldin is steadily becoming both a critical and popular favorite – and redefining what we think of New Age music along the way. *~*~*~* MORE ABOUT ORIGINS *~*~*~* Blending exotic instrumentation with passionate and ethereal vocals, the earth comes alive as Origins invokes its new beginnings. The album, carried by Jillian's powerful voice, is a response to the lack of lyric-centric works in contemporary New Age/World music - unified by themes of mystery, plight, and catharsis. With the magic of musical storytelling, Jillian takes you on a voyage through the awakening, and invites you to celebrate in its mysteries. Samples of the tracks are available above in the MusicFreedom player. Get your own copy of Origins today! *~*~*~* MORE ABOUT THROUGH SAND AND SNOW *~*~*~* The holiday season is filled with a special kind of magic: trees glisten with freshly fallen snow, families are reunited for the traditions of gift-giving and mealtime stories, and age-old carols imbue the air. But how often do we have the chance to steep our thoughts in solitude? Through Sand and Snow brings the listener on a nighttime journey through the aura of mystery and awe that Christmas so quietly inspires in our hearts. A vast nature surrounds us in these colder months, longing to be explored... Sometimes, it is only after we have that our own homes feel even warmer. Tracks from the album have been added to Jillian's MySpace player. Get your copy of Through Sand and Snow if you like what you hear! |
