From NYS Music...Athena Burke gives us a powerful and positive anthem to remind us to stand strong in these off-centered times. In her own words, I WILL NOT FALL is an emotional power anthem I wrote to help heal a past filled with trauma. A call to our inner strength in times of challenge. My sister, Lori had a life mantra. It came from our childhood. She had these dolls called Weebles. The slogan was ‘Weebles wobble but they don’t fall down.’ This song is dedicated to all of us who won’t fall down. And my sister Lori, who didn’t make it but inspired everyone around her. I hope this song will bring you love and power and strength on those days when you need it.
STAR is an uplifting pep talk to remind you that you have what you need even if you don't know what's next. It's a super positive loving song to walk you through your doubts. Backed with magical shimmery electro-pop vibrations, it reminds you who you are: A Star!
GOD IS HERE is a song of universal love. No matter who you are or what you've done, you are loved. It's a song of inclusion and invitation. It's about a love that has no boundaries. It's everything and it's no thing and it's all we really are. I hope it brings you a sense of belonging and love.
Produced by Devon Seegers of Bathrobe Robots.
BIO
If you landed here, you are a beautiful human navigating the challenging landscape of life. Athena's gift is to bare her soul to sing the songs of strength, vulnerability, and raw emotion that resonate on the path.
Her newest album, God is Here (The Long Road) features eleven genre-blending songs of healing amidst heartbreak and loss, finding faith in something greater than what your eyes can see, and celebrating the humble joys in life, day by day. Athena’s tender yet powerful vocals and deeply honest lyrics are set against an earthy and shimmering electropop soundscape.
As a child, Athena reached for the piano to find harmony. She wrote her first song at the age of eight. This led to studies at Berklee College of Music, then street performing and concerts across the country. Inspired to heal her childhood trauma, Athena trained in meditation, breathwork, and multiple inner-growth practices. Wanting to help others, Athena has given thousands of spiritual guidance and healing sessions and performances worldwide.
Athena feels that her early life cracked her open to receiving universal love as her guiding light. She sings honestly about the human experience of a devotional person.
No matter what you've done or what you believe, you are held in a love that is eternal, universal, and inclusive. A new era is dawning and although it is chaotic now, there's a groundswell of unity pulsing in our world.
