New Music Monday Featuring Rosi Golan!

This week’s artist is an Israeli singer/songwriter with a haunting voice! Introducing you to…

Rosi Golan

Rosi Golan is an Israeli born singer songwriter who has made many stops in her travels, including Germany, Paris and finally ending up in Los Angeles at the age of nine. During her travels, she not only managed to hone her infectiously melodic songwriting, but also learned to speak five languages: French, Hungarian, German, Hebrew and English.

Rosi is indeed a long way from home, but certainly in the right place to showcase her unique talent for rich, dark melodies and a voice that not only draws you in, but still haunts you the next day.

Those talents are on full display with her Marshall Altman produced debut CD, The Drifter and the Gypsy, which is available for purchase on iTunes.  The 11‐song record has already yielded 13 placements, most recently her song “Think Of Me” in the new Nicholas Sparks (The Notebook) film “Dear John, directed by Lasse Halstrom (Cider House Rules, Chocolat). She has also had songs on such shows as One Tree Hill, Private Practice, Doll House, Biggest Loser and Ghost Whisperer. Her song “Shine” is the anthem for the international Pantene campaign and “C’est L’amour” is currently licensed to Chicco Clothing and Stroili Oro with ads in Italy, Portugal and Switzerland.

Her song “Hazy”, featuring William Fitzsimmon, was recently added to Clear Channel’s NEW! Discover and Uncover radio station and her new video for “Think Of Me” just debuted on AOL Music’s spinner.com and Fuse TV.

Rosi, a Kobalt Music writer, has co‐written numerous songs for other artists, including “Let Me Out”, a single from Ben’s Brother debut CD (EMI/Virgin). The song was featured on Grey’s Anatomy and nominated for the prestigious Ivor Novello songwriting award for Best Song.

Rosi has toured the US with William Fitzsimmons, Greg Laswell, Ari Hest, Jay Nash and Julian Velard. She’s been featured in Billboard Magazine and Performing Songwriter and her song “Think of Me” was the recipient of the ASCAP’s first Robert Allen Award for songwriting.
