a Review by Amy Producer of Collected Sounds
AņaVaņA (pronounced onya-vonya) has recently signed with Zip Records and released their debut CD. They're classified as Reggae, and I guess they are, but not your classic Marley reggae. They have a definite pop flair to them as well. Maybe even ska, as they remind me a little of No Doubt.
Annastasia Victory is the lead singer as well as keyboard player. Her voice is not as high and childish as Gwen Stefani's voice, but still has a little bit of a girly quality. The main difference is that Victory can also belt it out as well as purr and all in that oh so slight and lovely accent that I can't quite place.
The musicianship in this band is very professional as is the production. High quality in both regards. This is radio worthy.
Stand out songs: "Colors Fading", "Just Wanted To Love You", and "Taken Away" (which sounds really cool through headphones).
