Adrienne Shamszad is a singer-songwriter from the SF Bay Area who writes revolutionary anthems, prayerful power ballads, soul-stirring love songs, the blues, lullabies, and sing-alongs. She plays guitar, piano, and setar to accompany her strong and soulful voice. Adrienne is a bold performer who brings her audiences together with her humor, vulnerability, and a healing touch.
Adrienne's influences as a guitarist and songwriter are rooted in folk, rock, and R&B as well as the classical poetry and vocal styles of the Iranian musical traditions. Over the years, Adrienne's music has developed into a bridge between these two dimensions of her own heritage, steering her into the outer reaches of the singer-songwriter genre, and far beyond; American Roots with Mystic Soul.
Adrienne is a two-time recipient of the Living Cultures grant through the Alliance for California Traditional Arts (ACTA). She is a multi dimensional artist with extensive training in western classical and jazz vocal technique, acting, musical theater, and music education. She has performed at the Berkeley Repertory Theater as an actress and a composer. She has performed and toured with SOVOSO, an A capella group consisting of members of Bobby McFerrin's Voicestra. She has released two full-length albums, an EP and multiple singles and has shared her original music around the world and throughout the U.S.
